Longest Mountain in Array

You may recall that an array arr is a mountain array if and only if:

  • arr.length >= 3
  • There exists some index i (0-indexed) with 0 < i < arr.length - 1 such that:
  • arr[0] < arr[1] < ... < arr[i - 1] < arr[i]
  • arr[i] > arr[i + 1] > ... > arr[arr.length - 1]

Given an integer array arr, return the length of the longest subarray, which is a mountain. Return 0 if there is no mountain subarray.

Follow up:

  • Can you solve it using only one pass?
  • Can you solve it in O(1) space?
Example 1
      #
      #
      #     #
    # #     #
    # # #   #
#   # # # # #
# # # # # # #
2 1 4 7 3 2 5
Inputarr = [2,1,4,7,3,2,5]
Output5
The largest mountain is [1,4,7,3,2] which has length 5.
Example 2
# # #
# # #
2 2 2
Inputarr = [2,2,2]
Output0
There is no mountain.

Constraints

  • 1 <= arr.length <= 10^4
  • 0 <= arr[i] <= 10^4
