Challenge #458: Masking Alternating Characters

Great Challenge

My solution matches the format of the instructions but record #2 in the Output provided within the start file doesn't line up with the instructions as the second character of the first word is hashed not the first character, nor does the space get skipped in the count as it does in the instructions where the first character of each word gets hashed regardless of placement in the full string. I feel like there has to be a more efficient way to use RegEx to get the hashing to work without the extra steps; I just don't know what it is.

Still a fun challenge to work on.

Fun one! I initially overcomplicated when I didn't fully understand the instructions. Then it became much easier
