Rick is a fan of logic-based games. However, he is bored of the classic ones, like Sudoku and Mastermind, since he has solved so many of them. Recently he found a new game in which one is given a string with some question marks in it. The objective is to replace all of the question marks with letters (one letter per question mark) in such a way that no letter appears next to another letter of the same kind.
Write a function:
def solution(riddle)
that, given a string riddle, returns a copy of the string with all of the question marks replaced by lowercase letters (a-z) in such a way that the same letters do not occur next to each other. The result can be any of the possible answers as long as it fulfils the above requirements.
Examples:
1. Given riddle = "ab?ac?", your function might return "abcaca". Some other possible results are 'abzacd", "abfacf".
2. Given riddle = "rd?e?wg??", your function might return "rdveawgab".
3. Given riddle = "", your function might return "codility".
Write an efficient algorithm for the following assumptions:
• the length of the string is within the range [1..100,000);
• string riddle consists only of lowercases letters (a - z) or '?';
• it is always possible to turn string 'riddle' into a string without two identical consecutive letters.

2 # print("this is a debug message")

6 # write your code in Python 3.6
