Number of Smooth Descent Periods of a Stock</a></h2><h3>Medium</h3><hr><p>You are given an integer array <code>prices</code> representing the daily price history of a stock, where <code>prices[i]</code> is the stock price on the <code>i<sup>th</sup></code> day.</p> |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +<p>A <strong>smooth descent period</strong> of a stock consists of <strong>one or more contiguous</strong> days such that the price on each day is <strong>lower</strong> than the price on the <strong>preceding day</strong> by <strong>exactly</strong> <code>1</code>. The first day of the period is exempted from this rule.</p> |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +<p>Return <em>the number of <strong>smooth descent periods</strong></em>.</p> |

| 9 | + |
| 10 | +<pre> |
| 11 | +<strong>Input:</strong> prices = [3,2,1,4] |
| 12 | +<strong>Output:</strong> 7 |
| 13 | +<strong>Explanation:</strong> There are 7 smooth descent periods: |
| 14 | +[3], [2], [1], [4], [3,2], [2,1], and [3,2,1] |
| 15 | +Note that a period with one day is a smooth descent period by the definition. |

| 19 | + |
| 20 | +<pre> |
| 21 | +<strong>Input:</strong> prices = [8,6,7,7] |
| 22 | +<strong>Output:</strong> 4 |
| 23 | +<strong>Explanation:</strong> There are 4 smooth descent periods: [8], [6], [7], and [7] |
| 24 | +Note that [8,6] is not a smooth descent period as 8 - 6 ≠ 1. |

| 31 | +<strong>Output:</strong> 1 |
| 32 | +<strong>Explanation:</strong> There is 1 smooth descent period: [1] |
