Repeated Character Matching | Dataford Interview Questions

Write a script that takes a given string, matches all sequentially repeated characters, and returns them in an array.

Implement def repeated_character_runs(s):, accepting a string and returning an array of maximal consecutive character runs whose length is at least two. Preserve the original order and return each run as a string, including all of its repeated characters. Return an empty array when no repeated run exists.

Constraints

0 <= len(s) <= 100000
The input contains ordinary Python string characters.
Return maximal consecutive runs, not individual duplicate characters.
Runs must appear in their original left-to-right order.

Function Signature
