17.37 PRACTICE: Vectors**: Longest sequence C++






A common statistic of interest is the longest sequence of some pattern in a list of items. For example, in football, one may be interested in the longest sequence of consecutive complete passes. Given a list in which each item is either the letter "I" (for an incomplete pass) or a number (for a completed pass), output the length of the longest sequence of complete passes. The list is preceded by the number of items. Given 8 4 15 9 I 30 2 I 20, the output is 3 (because the longest sequence of complete passes is 4 15 9).


Hints:




  • Use two variables, one that keeps track of the current sequence length, and another for the longest sequence length.




  • In a for loop that iterates through the vector, if you see an "I", set the current sequence length to 0.




  • Otherwise, you are in sequence (either at the beginning or later in the sequence), so increment the current sequence length.




  • A simple way to compute the longest sequence is to potentially update that variable every time you update the current sequence length. Check if the current is greater than the longest -- if so, update the longest.




  • When done iterating, just output the value of the longest sequence length variable.




Please answer in c++

using namespace std;


int main() {
int numItems;
vector listItems;
string currItem;
int i;


// Get items
cin >> numItems;
for (i = 0; i < numitems;="" ++i)="">
cin >> currItem;
listItems.push_back(currItem);
}


/* Type your code here */


return 0;
}
