Eight friends M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, and T are sitting around a circular table with equal distance between them but not necessarily in the same order. Some of them are facing the centre with some face outside (i.e. opposite to centre). O sits second to the right of R, R faces the centre. Only two people sit between O and N (either form O’s right or O’s left). S sits second to the right of O. T sits to the immediate right of N. S and N face opposite direction (i.e. if N faces the centre then S faces outside and vice versa). An immediate neighbor of S face the same direction (i.e. If one neighbor faces the centre then the other also faces the centre and vice-versa) Only three people sit between P and Q. Neither P nor M is an immediate neighbor of R. Q sits second to the right of M. Both T and Q face a direction opposite to that of O (i.e. if O faces the centre then both T and Q faces outside and vice-versa).

 How many people in the given arrangement face the centre?
