Interview Prompt

You're profiling a numeric column pulled from a metrics export, hunting for the longest stretch where the readings only ever move one way. Given `arr`, return the length of that stretch.

Summary

The longest stretch that never turns around.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write and run your Python against test cases
  4. Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
