6 | 3 | ## Description |
| 4 | +There are `n` cars on an infinitely long road. The cars are numbered from `0` to `n - 1` from left to right and each car is present at a **unique** point. |
| 5 | + |
| 6 | +You are given a **0-indexed** string `directions` of length `n`. `directions[i]` can be either `'L'`, `'R'`, or `'S'` denoting whether the `ith` car is moving towards the **left**, towards the **right**, or **staying** at its current point respectively. Each moving car has the **same speed**. |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +The number of collisions can be calculated as follows: |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +- When two cars moving in **opposite** directions collide with each other, the number of collisions increases by `2`. |
| 11 | +- When a moving car collides with a stationary car, the number of collisions increases by `1`. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +After a collision, the cars involved can no longer move and will stay at the point where they collided. Other than that, cars cannot change their state or direction of motion. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Return the **total number of collisions** that will happen on the road. |

9 | 18 |
|
10 | 19 | ``` |
11 | | -Input: a = "11", b = "1" |
12 | | -Output: "100" |
| 20 | +Input: directions = "RLRSLL" |
| 21 | +Output: 5 |
| 22 | +Explanation: |
| 23 | +The collisions that will happen on the road are: |
| 24 | +- Cars 0 and 1 will collide with each other. Since they are moving in opposite directions, the number of collisions becomes 0 + 2 = 2. |
| 25 | +- Cars 2 and 3 will collide with each other. Since car 3 is stationary, the number of collisions becomes 2 + 1 = 3. |
| 26 | +- Cars 3 and 4 will collide with each other. Since car 3 is stationary, the number of collisions becomes 3 + 1 = 4. |
| 27 | +- Cars 4 and 5 will collide with each other. After car 4 collides with car 3, it will stay at the point of collision and get hit by car 5. The number of collisions becomes 4 + 1 = 5. |
| 28 | +Thus, the total number of collisions that will happen on the road is 5. |

25 | | - |
| 34 | +Input: directions = "LLRR" |
| 35 | +Output: 0 |
| 36 | +Explanation: |
| 37 | +No cars will collide with each other. Thus, the total number of collisions that will happen on the road is 0. |
