Java > AP-1 > scoresIncreasing (CodingBat Solution)

Problem:

Given an array of scores, return true if each score is equal or greater than the one before. The array will be length 2 or more.

scoresIncreasing({1, 3, 4}) → true
scoresIncreasing({1, 3, 2}) → false
scoresIncreasing({1, 1, 4}) → true


Solution:

public boolean scoresIncreasing(int[] scores) {
  boolean match = false;
  for (int i = 0; i < scores.length-1; i++) {
    if (scores[i+1] >= scores[i]) 
      match = true;
    else
      return false;
  }
  return match;
}

  7. int holder = scores[0];
    int tick = 0;
    for( int i = 0; i < scores.length; i++) {

    if(scores[i] >= holder) {
    holder = scores[i];
    tick++;
    }

    }
    if(tick == scores.length){
    return true;
    } else {
    return false;
