In bioinformatics, long character strings are often encoded in a format called FASTA.

A FASTA file can contain several strings, each identified by a name marked by a > (greater than) character at the beginning of the line.



Task

Write a program that reads a FASTA file such as:

>Rosetta_Example_1
THERECANBENOSPACE
>Rosetta_Example_2
THERECANBESEVERAL
LINESBUTTHEYALLMUST
BECONCATENATED


Output:
Rosetta_Example_1: THERECANBENOSPACE
Rosetta_Example_2: THERECANBESEVERALLINESBUTTHEYALLMUSTBECONCATENATED

Note that a high-quality implementation will not hold the entire file in memory at once; real FASTA files can be multiple gigabytes in size.




def fasta_format(strings)
  out, text = [], ""
  strings.split("\n").each do |line|
    if line[0] == '>'
      out << text unless text.empty?
      text = line[1..-1] + ": "
    else
      text << line
    end
  end
  out << text unless text.empty?
end
