You are given an array ‘ARR’ of integers. Your task is to find the length of the longest alternating subsequence.

Note:
A sequence a1, a2, .... an is called an alternating sequence if its elements satisfy one of the following relations : a1 < a2 > a3 < a4 > a5..... or  a1 > a2 < a3 > a4 < a5.
For example:
'ARR' = {3, 10, 1, 2, 30}, the longest alternating subsequence for this array can be {3, 10, 1, 30} or {3, 10, 2, 30}. Therefore, the answer will be 4.

Accolite

Ninja is a teacher at a school. He introduced a game of matrix. He gives a square matrix, i.e. N X N matrix, to all the school students and asks them to rotate the matrix ‘K’ times in clockwise direction.

Among them, a student Ninja is new to programming. He doesn’t have much experience, so he asks you to solve the problem. Can you help Ninja to rotate the matrix exactly ‘K’ times clockwise?

Rotation of the matrix here means rotating each row of matrix 'K' times such that the new position of the element having coordinates (i, j) will become (i, (j + K) % N).

For Example:

Let the matrix be and let 'K' will be 1:
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9

The new matrix will be:
3 1 2
6 4 5
9 7 8
