standard output

A colored stripe is represented by a horizontal row of n square cells, each cell is pained one of k colors. Your task is to repaint the minimum number of cells so that no two neighbouring cells are of the same color. You can use any color from 1 to k to repaint the cells.

Input

The first input line contains two integers n and k (1 ≤ n ≤ 5·105; 2 ≤ k ≤ 26). The second line contains n uppercase English letters. Letter "A" stands for the first color, letter "B" stands for the second color and so on. The first k English letters may be used. Each letter represents the color of the corresponding cell of the stripe.

Output

Print a single integer — the required minimum number of repaintings. In the second line print any possible variant of the repainted stripe.

1.如果n == 1则不需要改动。

2.如果k == 2 && n > 1则比较将原字符串改为ABABABA..和BABABAB...的代价哪个小

3.如果k > 2 && n > 1从下标1开始遍历整个字符串str, 若str[i] == str[i-1]则改动str[i]这个字符使之不等于str[i-1]和str[i+1]
