    Trace through the code and figure out where the 1 come from. Then figure out how it got there.

    Hi. This where I'm at right now.

    The error comes when I test for sequence 1 3 3 5 4 2 3

     
    package forrit;
     
     
    public class Verkefni2tplus {
     
            public static void main(String[] args) {
                int N = args.length;
                int[] a = new int[N];
                int downcounter=1;
                int upcounter=1;
                int goodolddowncounter=1;
                for (int i = 0;i<N;i++) {
                    a[i] = Integer.parseInt(args[i]);
        }
     
            {
                for(int i=0;i<N-1;i++)
     
                  if (a[i]>=a[i+1])
                      {
                         downcounter++;
                         goodolddowncounter=downcounter;
                      }
                       else 
                          {
                           upcounter++;
                          }
            		}
                if (upcounter>downcounter) 
                               {
                                    goodolddowncounter=downcounter;
                                    downcounter=1;                 
                               }
     
     
     
                  System.out.print(goodolddowncounter);
        }
        }


    --- Update ---

    int goodolddowncounter=0;

    I did the trace. It's solved. With an if loop at the bottom.
