Proposed solution

I'll solve this step by step.

## Problem Understanding

1. We have a binary string of 0s and 1s
2. In each operation, we can select a subsequence where adjacent characters are different, then flip all those characters
3. Goal: Make all characters '0' with minimum operations

## Key Insights

Let me think about what happens when we perform an operation:
- We select a subsequence where no two adjacent characters in the subsequence are the same
- We flip all selected characters
- The constraint is that in our chosen subsequence, adjacent positions in the original string cannot have the same character value

Wait, let me re-read... "any two adjacent characters in t are different" - this means in the subsequence we pick, no two consecutive characters in that subsequence should be the same.

Actually, let me trace through the example:
- s = "00101" 
- t = s_1 s_3 s_4 s_5 = "0101"
- After flip: s = "10010"

## Key Observation

Let's think about what operations can do:
- If we have a subsequence like "0101", flipping it would change it to "1010"
- The key insight is that we want to eliminate all 1s
- Each operation can flip a subsequence where adjacent characters in the subsequence are different

## Better Approach

Let me think of this differently:
- We want to make all 1s become 0s
- Each operation flips a subsequence with alternating 0s and 1s
- The key insight: we need to count how many "segments" of consecutive identical characters there are, but we're looking for the minimum operations

Actually, let me think about this more systematically:

If I have a string like "111000", I can:
1. Flip all 1s in one operation (subsequence: positions 1,2,3) - but wait, this violates the constraint that adjacent chars in subsequence must be different

Let me re-read carefully... 

The constraint is: "any two adjacent characters in t are different"
So if I pick a subsequence like "0101", that's valid because 0โ‰ 1 and 0โ‰ 1.

## Key Insight - Segments

Looking at the examples:
- "1" โ†’ 1 operation (need to flip 1 to 0)
- "000" โ†’ 0 operations (already all 0s)  
- "1001" โ†’ 2 operations
- "10101" โ†’ 3 operations

Let me think of it this way:
- We want to convert all 1s to 0s
- Each operation can flip a subsequence where adjacent elements in the subsequence are different
- The minimum number of operations equals the number of segments of consecutive 1s

Wait, let me trace "10101":
- It has segments: "1", "1", "1" (3 segments)
- But we need 3 operations, so that seems right

Let me trace "1001":
- Segments of 1s: "1", "1" = 2 segments
- Need 2 operations โœ“

For "111000":
- Segments of 1s: "111" = 1 segment  
- Need 1 operation

But wait, let me trace the example more carefully:
- s = "1001"
- Operation 1: pick subsequence "10" (positions 1,2) โ†’ becomes "0001" 
- Operation 2: pick subsequence "001" (positions 3,4) โ†’ becomes "0000"

Hmm, that's not right. Let me re-read...

Actually, let me think of it as:
- We want to make all characters '0'
- Each operation flips a subsequence where adjacent characters in the subsequence are different
- The key insight is: we need to count how many times we have alternating 1s and 0s

## Simpler Insight

Let me look at this differently:
- If I have a string like "111000", I can flip all 1s in one operation (subsequence positions 1,2,3) - but that's not valid since adjacent in subsequence are same
- Actually, if I pick positions 1,3,5 (1,1,1) - this is invalid because adjacent chars in subsequence are same

Wait, no. The constraint is on the subsequence itself:
- If I have "10101" and pick positions 1,3,5 โ†’ subsequence is "111" - but that's not valid since adjacent characters in subsequence are same

Actually, let me think of it as: we want to make all 1s become 0s.
The key insight is:
- Each operation can flip a subsequence where no two adjacent elements in the subsequence are equal
- This means we can flip any alternating pattern (like 10101 or 01010)

So the minimum operations = number of segments of consecutive 1s.

Let me trace:
- "1" โ†’ 1 segment of 1s โ†’ 1 operation
- "000" โ†’ 0 segments of 1s โ†’ 0 operations  
- "1001" โ†’ 2 segments of 1s (positions 1 and 4) โ†’ 2 operations
- "10101" โ†’ 3 segments of 1s โ†’ 3 operations

But wait, let me think about the actual process:
- We want to make all 1s into 0s
- Each operation can flip a subsequence with alternating characters  
- So we need to count how many "groups" of consecutive 1s there are

Actually, I think it's simpler:
- Count the number of maximal contiguous segments of 1s
- That's the answer

Let me verify:
- "1" โ†’ one segment of 1s โ†’ 1 operation โœ“
- "000" โ†’ zero segments of 1s โ†’ 0 operations โœ“  
- "1001" โ†’ two segments of 1s (at pos 1, and at pos 4) โ†’ 2 operations โœ“
- "10101" โ†’ three segments of 1s โ†’ 3 operations โœ“

## Implementation Plan

1. Count the number of maximal contiguous segments of '1's in the string
2. Return that count

```python
t = int(input())
for _ in range(t):
    s = input().strip()
    
    # Count segments of consecutive 1s
    count = 0
    i = 0
    while i < len(s):
        if s[i] == '1':
            # Found start of a segment of 1s
            count += 1
            # Skip all consecutive 1s
            while i < len(s) and s[i] == '1':
                i += 1
        else:
            i += 1
    
    print(count)
```
