Develop a function that accepts an array and returns true if the array contains any duplicate values or false if none of the values are repeated.  Develop a function that returns true if the elements are in decreasing order and false otherwise.  A “peak” is a value in an array that is preceded and followed by a strictly lower value. For example, in the array {2, 12, 9, 8, 5, 7, 3, 9} the values 12 and 7 are peaks. Develop a function that returns the number of peaks in an array of integers. Note that the first element does not have a preceding element and the last element is not followed by anything, so neither the first nor last elements can be peaks
