NOTES:
-more than 10 digits (10^10), use long
-prefix sum of 1's and -1's to control flow of highlighting a region
-log(a)/log(b) = log base b of a
-create a position array if trying to see if elements show up next to each other sequentially
 i.e. elements 1,2,3 are within 3 spots of each other in an array
      arr[scannedInt - 1] = i; (position of i at p[i] in original)
- use a freq array when counting instances of an element occurring
- increment the counter first before simulating anything turn-based (two player game)
