Problem type

Xyene is going through a stressful week; It is yet another week of midterms, this time at university.

Unable to invest any more time into writing problems for the DMOPC, Xyene has offered you a position among the problemsetters of this DMCI-based contest, provided that you correctly answer the following skill-testing question:

Given an array A of integers, count the number of elements which share the parity of its index (0-based).

More colloquially, find the number of array elements which have the same remainder when divided by 2 (odd / even-ness) as its index.

Input Specification

The first line of the input contains the integer N (1N30), denoting the number of elements in the array A.

The next line of the input contains N space-separated integers Ai (0Ai100), denoting the elements of the array A.

Output Specification

Your program should output the number of array elements which have the same parity as its index on a single line by itself.

Sample Input

Copy
5
0 1 2 3 4

Sample Output

Copy
5

Explanation

A0=0A1=1A2=2A3=3A4=4

All of the array elements are the same as their indices, so the answer is 5.
