Minimum Flips to Make the Binary String Alternate
Understand how to transform a binary string into an alternating pattern by calculating the minimum flips required. Explore techniques for both shifting and flipping characters and implement an efficient O(n) time and O(1) space solution.

Statement
Given a binary string s, the following two operations can be performed in any sequence:
-
Type–1: Remove the character at the start of the string
sand append it to the end of the string. -
Type–2: Pick any character from the string and flip its value. in other words, if its value is , it becomes ...
