+# Instructions
+
+Implement run-length encoding and decoding.
+
+Run-length encoding (RLE) is a simple form of data compression, where runs (consecutive data elements) are replaced by just one data value and count.
+
+For example we can represent the original 53 characters with only 13.
+
+```text
+"WWWWWWWWWWWWBWWWWWWWWWWWWBBBWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWB"  ->  "12WB12W3B24WB"
+```
+
+RLE allows the original data to be perfectly reconstructed from the compressed data, which makes it a lossless data compression.
+
+```text
+"AABCCCDEEEE"  ->  "2AB3CD4E"  ->  "AABCCCDEEEE"
+```
+
+For simplicity, you can assume that the unencoded string will only contain the letters A through Z (either lower or upper case) and whitespace.
+This way data to be encoded will never contain any numbers and numbers inside data to be decoded always represent the count for the following character.
