The count-and-say sequence is the sequence of integers beginning as follows:
1, 11, 21, 1211, 111221, ...
1
is read off as "one 1"
or 11
.
11
is read off as "two 1s"
or 21
.
21
is read off as "one 2
, then one 1"
or 1211
.
Given an integer n, generate the nth sequence.
Note: The sequence of integers will be represented as a string.
public class Solution {
public String countAndSay(int n) {

while(--n>0){

char[] arr = str.toCharArray();

int count = 1;
for(int i=1;i<arr.length;i++){
if(pre!=arr[i]){
sb.append(count).append(pre);
count = 1;
pre = arr[i];
}else{
count++;
}
}
sb.append(count).append(pre);
str = sb.toString();
