Late in the evening, you are sitting at the Funky Punk Café
and feeling a bit bored because you have not done any programming all day. You stare out of the window and see that
the text on the neon signs gets reflected in a funny way: the
letters are partially overlapping, because the window is made
of double-paned glass. Would it be possible to automatically
read the text of the sign, just by looking at this mangled reflection? With a burst of sudden inspiration, you grab your laptop
and OCR camera from your bag, and start programming.
Your OCR camera appears to correctly recognize the letters in
the reflection when it accounts for the mirroring, except that all the letters are duplicated.
Moreover, if the text on the sign contains double (or more) letters, their reflection partially
overlaps, resulting in only one more letter than there would be in the original word. For
example, the word “beer” is reflected as “bbeeerr”, and the word “ooo” is reflected as
“oooo”. All that is left for you to do, is to write a program that converts these reflected
words back to their original form.
