You have to count how many items are wrapped by packaging lines, i.e., how many letters have a digit on the left and a digit on the right in the string. Your task is to find and return an integer value representing the number of items wrapped in packaging lines. ### Problem The input string S will only contain lowercase English letters and digits (0-9). ### Input input1: A string S containing only lowercase English letters and digits (0-9). ### Output Return an integer value representing the number of items wrapped in packaging lines. ### Examples #### Example 1: Input: input1 = "1a2b3c4d5" Output: 4 Explanation: Here, the string S is "1a2b3c4d5". We can find the wrapped items as below: - 'a' between 1 and 2 - 'b' between 2 and 3 - 'c' between 3 and 4 - 'd' between 4 and 5 The count of such items is 4, hence 4 is returned as the output. #### Example 2: Input: input1 = "5aart6i7io8o5o56" Output: 3 Explanation: Here, the string S is "5aart6i7io8o5o56". We can find the wrapped items as below: - 'i' between 6 and 7 - 'o' between 8 and 5 - 'o' between 5 and 5 The count of such items is 3, hence 3 is returned as the output."
