You are given an array of integers nums.

You are given an array of integers nums. Return the length of the longest subarray of nums which is either strictly increasing or strictly decreasing.

Longest Strictly Increasing or Strictly Decreasing Subarray diagram

Example 1

Input: nums = [1,4,3,3,2]

Output: 2

Explanation: The strictly increasing subarrays of nums are [1] , [2] , [3] , [3] , [4] , and [1,4] . The strictly decreasing subarrays of nums are [1] , [2] , [3] , [3] , [4] , [3,2] , and [4,3] . Hence, we return 2 .

Example 2

Input: nums = [3,3,3,3]

Output: 1

Explanation: The strictly increasing subarrays of nums are [3] , [3] , [3] , and [3] . The strictly decreasing subarrays of nums are [3] , [3] , [3] , and [3] . Hence, we return 1 .

Example 3

Input: nums = [3,2,1]

Output: 3

Explanation: The strictly increasing subarrays of nums are [3] , [2] , and [1] . The strictly decreasing subarrays of nums are [3] , [2] , [1] , [3,2] , [2,1] , and [3,2,1] . Hence, we return 3 .

Constraints

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 50
  • 1 <= nums[i] <= 50
