[LeetCode] 674. Longest Continuous Increasing Subsequence_Easy Dynamic Programming

Given an unsorted array of integers, find the length of longest continuous increasing subsequence (subarray).

Example 1:

Input: [1,3,5,4,7]
Output: 3
Explanation: The longest continuous increasing subsequence is [1,3,5], its length is 3. 
Even though [1,3,5,7] is also an increasing subsequence, it's not a continuous one where 5 and 7 are separated by 4. 

 

Example 2:

Input: [2,2,2,2,2]
Output: 1
Explanation: The longest continuous increasing subsequence is [2], its length is 1. 

 

Note: Length of the array will not exceed 10,000.

 

这个是一个经典的DP问题,  A[i] = A[i-1] + 1 if a[i] > a[i-1] else 1     (i > 0)   , init: A[0] = 1

class Solution:
    def longestContinuesSubarry(self, nums):
        if not nums: return 0
        n = len(nums)
        dp, ans = [1]*2, 1
        for i in range(1, n):
            if nums[i] > nums[i-1]:
                dp[i%2] = dp[(i - 1) % 2] + 1
            else:
                dp[i%2] = 1
            ans = max(ans, dp[i%2])
        return ans
