# 2210. Count Hills and Valleys in an Array
from itertools import groupby

"""
you are given a 0-indexed integer array 'nums'. an index 'i' is part of a
hill in 'nums' if the closest non-equal neighbours of 'i' are smaller than
'nums[i]'. similarly, an index 'i' is part of a valley in 'nums' if the
closest non-equal neighbours of 'i' are larger than 'nums[i]'. adjacent
indices 'i' and 'j' are part of the same hill or valley if 'nums[i] ==
nums[j]'. note that for an index to be part of a hill or valley, it must have
a non-equal neighbour on both the left and right of the index. return the
number of hills and valleys in 'nums'.
