Power Strings

 

Description

Given two strings a and b we define a*b to be their concatenation. For example, if a = "abc" and b = "def" then a*b = "abcdef". If we think of concatenation as multiplication, exponentiation by a non-negative integer is defined in the normal way: a^0 = "" (the empty string) and a^(n+1) = a*(a^n).

Input

Each test case is a line of input representing s, a string of printable characters. The length of s will be at least 1 and will not exceed 1 million characters. A line containing a period follows the last test case.

Output

For each s you should print the largest n such that s = a^n for some string a.

Sample Input

abcd
aaaa
ababab
.

Sample Output

1
4
3

/*本题还可以用字符串匹配的经典算法KMP来解决。我觉得KMP很难理解，不过的确是个经典算法。这个问题，只需要用到KMP的构造，也就是对待搜索字符串的自身匹配就可以了

KMP是一种在长字符串中匹配短字符串的无回溯算法，它特别适合待搜索字符串自身有重复的情况，就是像这道题中的abababab之类的串。使用一个辅助数组next[i]记录当下标为i的字符匹配失败时，下一次匹配开始的下标（这里下标从0开始）。如此完成next的构造，并多计算一位，设s的长度为len，则a的长度就是len-next[len]，只需再做一个除法就可以完成n的求解了
