    We need to keep track of the position since an S could also be changed for an O. So just counting isn't enough

      public static int marsExploration(String s) {
        
        int counter = 0;
        int position = 1;
        for(int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++){            
            System.out.println(position);
            
            if((position == 1 || position == 3) && s.charAt(i) != 'S') {
            counter++;
            }else if(position == 2 && s.charAt(i) != 'O'){
            counter++;
            }   
            
            if(position == 3){
                position = 1;
            }else{
                position++;
            }                                                                                                                                            
        }
        
        return counter;
    }
