[BOJ 9086]string

problem

Write a program that prints the first and last letters of a string given a string as input.

input

In the first line of input, the number of test cases T (1 ≤ T ≤ 10) is given. Each test case is given one string per line. The string consists of uppercase letters A to Z, there are no spaces between the letters, and the length of the string is less than 1000.

Print

For each test case, the first and last letters of the given string are printed consecutively.

1.INTUITION

Print the first and the last character of the word.

2.APPROACH

Input a string and print the beginning and the end by using indexing.

3.WHAT TO KNOW

1.Input many lines

(1)Get T input and convert to integer.
(2)Using a for loop to take an input

2.Indexing string

Like the list data type, string correspond to an index number. It starts at index 0.

Word  :  H   e   l   l  o     w  o  r  l  d  !  
index :  0   1   2   3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10 11
index : -12 -11 -10 -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1

The first H starts at index 0, and ! ends at index 11.
Also, there is an negative index. We can cound backwords from the end of the string , starting at -1.

4.CODE

# Get T input and convert to integer.
T = int(input())
# Using a for loop to take input.
for i in range(T):
    word = input()
    # print first and last chracter of the word
    print(word[0]+word[-1])
