The count-and-say sequence is the sequence of integers with the first five terms as following:
1. 1
2. 11
3. 21
4. 1211
5. 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 where 1 ≤ n ≤ 30, generate the nth term of the count-and-say sequence.
Note: Each term of the sequence of integers will be represented as a string.
Example 1:
Input: 1
Output: "1"
Example 2:
Input: 4
Output: "1211"
