Do you know reverse Polish notation (RPN)? It is a known notation in the area of mathematics and computer science. It is also known as postfix notation since every operator in an expression follows all of its operands. Bob is a student in Marjar University. He is learning RPN recent days.

To clarify the syntax of RPN for those who haven't learnt it before, we will offer some examples here. For instance, to add 3 and 4, one would write "3 4 +" rather than "3 + 4". If there are multiple operations, the operator is given immediately after its second operand. The arithmetic expression written "3 - 4 + 5" in conventional notation would be written "3 4 - 5 +" in RPN: 4 is first subtracted from 3, and then 5 added to it. Another infix expression "5 + ((1 + 2) × 4) - 3" can be written down like this in RPN: "5 1 2 + 4 × + 3 -". An advantage of RPN is that it obviates the need for parentheses that are required by infix.

In this problem, we will use the asterisk "*" as the only operator and digits from "1" to "9" (without "0") as components of operands.

You are given an expression in reverse Polish notation. Unfortunately, all space characters are missing. That means the expression are concatenated into several long numeric sequence which are separated by asterisks. So you cannot distinguish the numbers from the given string.

You task is to check whether the given string can represent a valid RPN expression. If the given string cannot represent any valid RPN, please find out the minimal number of operations to make it valid. There are two types of operation to adjust the given string:

  1. Insert. You can insert a non-zero digit or an asterisk anywhere. For example, if you insert a "1" at the beginning of "2*3*4", the string becomes "12*3*4".
  2. Swap. You can swap any two characters in the string. For example, if you swap the last two characters of "12*3*4", the string becomes "12*34*".

The strings "2*3*4" and "12*3*4" cannot represent any valid RPN, but the string "12*34*" can represent a valid RPN which is "1 2 * 34 *".

Input

There are multiple test cases. The first line of input contains an integer T indicating the number of test cases. For each test case:

There is a non-empty string consists of asterisks and non-zero digits. The length of the string will not exceed 1000.

Output

For each test case, output the minimal number of operations to make the given string able to represent a valid RPN.

Sample Input
3
1*1
11*234**
*
Sample Output
1
0
2

今天组队赛遇到的题 大意就是判断一个表达式是否是逆波兰表达式,如果不是 可以有插入和交换两种操作 求至少需要多少步能把它变成逆波兰表达式。 这题当时考虑了好多 而且也记不太清逆波兰表达式合法的形式,后来查题解发现是贪心,先统计数字和符号的总数,顺序扫一次,如果符号总数大于数字数减一,则必须补数字,然后再扫一遍,记录当前符号和数字数,一旦出现符号数多于数字减一的情况,则贪心的将末尾数字与它交换,不用真的交换,结果加1就可以。
