How to write a condition for counting identical adjacent characters in a string?

Question

Python

Greetings.
Tell me how to write a condition for counting identical adjacent characters in a string, for example, if there are more than 3 repeated letters or numbers in a string, then the condition is met. Upper or lower case is not important.
Examples:
Paaassword - the condition will be met
Paaaassword - the condition will be met
P111ssword - the condition will be met
Password - the condition will not be met

Answer 1

passw = 'PasssWword'

def ifTriple(word):
    for i in range(1, len(word)-1):
        if(word[i].lower() == word[i-1].lower() and word[i].lower() == word[i+1].lower() ):
            return True
    return False
        
print(ifTriple(passw))

Answer 2

group by

any(len(list(group)) > num for _, group in groupby(word.lower()))
