InfosysAmazonCognizant

Write a program to do basic string compression. For a character which is consecutively repeated more than once, replace consecutive duplicate occurrences with the count of repetitions.

Example:
If a string has 'x' repeated 5 times, replace this "xxxxx" with "x5".
The string is compressed only when the repeated character count is more than 1.
Note:
Consecutive count of every character in the input string is less than or equal to 9. You are not required to print anything. It has already been taken care of. Just implement the given function and return the compressed string.
Problem approach

Tip 1 : Loop from 1st to last element and take count is one
Tip 2 : And store 1st alphabet in output array and go to next 

Tip 3 : Increase the count if alphabet of that index is same as previous else first store the count as string in array and then insert new alphabet in output array and again go to next element and do the same
