Problem type

Knowing that he needs to make up for his lack of programming experience, Ace has set out to write perfect essays for the AIF. He wants to show his excitement for Waterloo and thus has requested that you make a program for him that adds !!!EXCITEMENT!!! to his essay. What better way to show excitement than exclamation marks! Ace has written an essay of N (1 \le N \le 100) lines. Replace every period, ., with three exclamation marks, !!!. Additionally, any word in all uppercase should be surrounded by three exclamation marks on each side. For example, the word COMPUTER should become !!!COMPUTER!!!.

Note: punctuation other than periods should be treated as part of the original word, e.g. 1^ST becomes !!!1^ST!!!.

Input Specification

First line: N, the number of lines to follow.

Every even line: an integer k (1 \le k \le 200), the number of space-separated strings in the following line of text.

Every odd line: a line of his essay, no longer than 200 characters.

Output Specification

The essay with !!!excitement!!!.

    Can a string be uppercase and then have a period at the end? I'm basically asking if there is a possibility to type 6 !s other than if there are two periods.

    The input data for this problem contained Unicode characters and have since been fixed to only contain ASCII characters. All out-of-contest submissions have been rejudged.

      This may be a long shot, but the test case a A, with two whitespaces, fails.

      Also, you use twice the amount of memory than the limit. You may want to work on that first.

      Try to apply .upper to an int in your shell. You'll know what's wrong afterwards

        "123".upper() outputs 123? Is a word composed of only integers considered capitalized

          No, I think the point was to recognize the opposite. Don't take integral values as capital letter words.

          Your mistake occurs after that section. I don't wish to give too much away but look at the sample inputs and outputs carefully. Also consider what happens when you need to add more than one set of !!!
