Given an array of N integers. The task is to count the number of subarrays (of size at least one) that are non-increasing.

Examples: 

Input : arr[] = {1, 4, 3}
Output : 4
The possible subarrays are {1}, {4}, {3}, {4, 3}.

Input :{4, 3, 2, 1}
Output : 10
The possible subarrays are:
{4}, {3}, {2}, {1}, {4, 3}, {3, 2}, {2, 1}, 
{4, 3, 2}, {3, 2, 1}, {4, 3, 2, 1}.

Simple Solution: A simple solution is to generate all possible subarrays, and for every subarray check if the subarray is non increasing or not. The time complexity of this solution would be O(N3).

Efficient Solution: A Better Solution is to use the fact that if a subarray arr[i:j] is not non increasing, then subarrays arr[i:j+1], arr[i:j+2], .. arr[i:n-1] cannot be non increasing. So, start traversing the array and for current subarray keep incrementing it’s length until it is non-increasing and update the count. Once the subarray starts increasing reset the length.

Below is the implementation of the above idea: 

C++




// C++ program to count number of non
// increasing subarrays
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
int countNonIncreasing(int arr[], int n)
{
    // Initialize result
    int cnt = 0;
 
    // Initialize length of current non
    // increasing subarray
    int len = 1;
 
    // Traverse through the array
    for (int i = 0; i < n - 1; ++i) {
 
        // If arr[i+1] is less than or equal to arr[i],
        // then increment length
        if (arr[i + 1] <= arr[i])
            len++;
 
        // Else Update count and reset length
        else {
            cnt += (((len + 1) * len) / 2);
            len = 1;
        }
    }
 
    // If last length is more than 1
    if (len > 1)
        cnt += (((len + 1) * len) / 2);
 
    return cnt;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 5, 2, 3, 7, 1, 1 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
 
    cout << countNonIncreasing(arr, n);
 
    return 0;
}


Java




// Java program to count number of non
// increasing subarrays
class GFG
{
     
static int countNonIncreasing(int arr[], int n)
{
    // Initialize result
    int cnt = 0;
 
    // Initialize length of current non
    // increasing subarray
    int len = 1;
 
    // Traverse through the array
    for (int i = 0; i < n - 1; ++i)
    {
 
        // If arr[i+1] is less than or equal to arr[i],
        // then increment length
        if (arr[i + 1] <= arr[i])
            len++;
 
        // Else Update count and reset length
        else
        {
            cnt += (((len + 1) * len) / 2);
            len = 1;
        }
    }
 
    // If last length is more than 1
    if (len > 1)
        cnt += (((len + 1) * len) / 2);
 
    return cnt;
}

Output

10

Time Complexity: O(N), since there runs a loop from 0 to (n – 2).
Auxiliary Space: O(1), since no extra space has been taken.
