C++ Exercises: Check a given array of integers and return true if the value 5 appears 5 times and there are no 5 next to each other

C++ Basic Algorithm: Exercise-112 with Solution

Write a C++ program to check a given array of integers. The program will return true if the value 5 appears 5 times and there are no 5 next to each other.

Sample Solution:

C++ Code :

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

static bool test(int numbers[], int arr_length)
        {
        bool flag = false;
        
            int five = 0;

            for (int i = 0; i < arr_length; i++)
            {
                if (numbers[i] == 5 && !flag)
                {
                    five++;
                    flag = true;
                }
                else
                {
                    flag = false;
                }
            }

            return five == 5;
          }   
          
int main() 
 {  
  int nums1[] = {3, 5, 1, 5, 3, 5, 7, 5, 1, 5};
  int arr_length = sizeof(nums1) / sizeof(nums1[0]);
  cout << test(nums1, arr_length) << endl; 
  int nums2[] = {3, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5};
  arr_length = sizeof(nums2) / sizeof(nums2[0]);
  cout << test(nums2, arr_length) << endl;
  int nums3[] = {3, 5, 2, 5, 4, 5, 7,  5, 8,  5};
  arr_length = sizeof(nums3) / sizeof(nums3[0]);
  cout << test(nums3, arr_length) << endl;
  int nums4[] = {2, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5};
  arr_length = sizeof(nums4) / sizeof(nums4[0]);
  cout << test(nums4, arr_length) << endl;
  return 0;    
}

Sample Output:

1
0
1
0
