Greater than Neighbor

CONCEPTS USED:

Arrays

DIFFICULTY LEVEL:

Easy

PROBLEM STATEMENT(SIMPLIFIED):

Given an array A of N elements, your task is to print all those indexes that have values greater than its left and right neighbors. In case of extreme indexes like 0 and N-1, check with their single neighbor.

See original problem statement here

For Example:

SOLVING APPROACH:

The idea is to traverse the array from left and for each index, check if the value at it is greater than its neighbor. If Yes print its index. If no such index is found, simply print -1.

SOLUTIONS:

#include < stdio.h >

int main()
{
  int t; scanf("%d", &t);

  while(t--){
    int n; scanf("%d", &n);
    int arr[n];

    for(int i=0; i arr[i+1]){
                printf("%d ", i);
                flag = 1;
            }
        }

        else if(i == n-1){
            if(arr[i] > arr[i-1]){
                printf("%d ", i);
                flag = 1;
            }
        }
        else{
            if(arr[i] > arr[i-1] && arr[i] > arr[i+1]){
                printf("%d ", i);
                flag = 1;
            }
        }  
    }
    if(flag == 0)
      printf("-1");
    printf("\n");
  }

  return 0;
}

# your code goes heren = int(input())

	if i == 0:

			flag = 1
	else:
		if arr[i] > arr[i - 1] and arr[i] > arr[i + 1]:
			print(i, end = " ")
			flag = 1

if flag == 0:
	print(-1)


Space Complexity: O(1)
