+# Challenge 053
+#
+# TASK #2
+# Vowel Strings
+# Write a script to accept an integer 1 <= N <= 5 that would print all possible
+# strings of size N formed by using only vowels (a, e, i, o, u).
+#
+# The string should follow the following rules:
+#
+# 'a' can only be followed by 'e' and 'i'.
+#
+# 'e' can only be followed by 'i'.
+#
+# 'i' can only be followed by 'a', 'e', 'o', and 'u'.
+#
+# 'o' can only be followed by 'a' and 'u'.
+#
+# 'u' can only be followed by 'o' and 'e'.
+#
+# For example, if the given integer N = 2 then script should print the following
+# strings:
+#
+# ae
+# ai
+# ei
+# ia
+# io
+# iu
+# ie
+# oa
+# ou
+# uo
+# ue
