Problem A
Fouled files
Aack! Your operating system went crazy and made a mess of all the text files on your hard drive. Fortunately, you know something about what happened. Each file originally had $\le 40$ characters per line, plus the original newline. The corruption process took each line and did two things: added a garbage character after each original character, and added possibly many garbage characters at the end of the line (but before the newline). Fortunately, you still know where the linebreaks are because newlines were (amazingly) not affected and there is no garbage on a line following a newline.
Since you’re handy with writing little ‘fixit’ utilities, write one that discards all text that must be garbage.
Input
Input contains one file to fix. The first line contains an integer $1 \le n \le 100$. Following are $n$ lines, each containing up to $200$ characters from the set of ASCII letters, numbers, punctuation, and space.
Output
Give the contents of the file after discarding text that must be garbage.
