# 0376. Wiggle Subsequence

https://leetcode.com/problems/wiggle-subsequence

## Description

A **wiggle sequence** is a sequence where the differences between successive numbers strictly alternate between positive and negative. The first difference (if one exists) may be either positive or negative. A sequence with one element and a sequence with two non-equal elements are trivially wiggle sequences.

* For example, `[1, 7, 4, 9, 2, 5]` is a **wiggle sequence** because the differences `(6, -3, 5, -7, 3)` alternate between positive and negative.
* In contrast, `[1, 4, 7, 2, 5]` and `[1, 7, 4, 5, 5]` are not wiggle sequences. The first is not because its first two differences are positive, and the second is not because its last difference is zero.

A **subsequence** is obtained by deleting some elements (possibly zero) from the original sequence, leaving the remaining elements in their original order.

Given an integer array `nums`, return _the length of the longest **wiggle subsequence** of_ `nums`.

**Example 1:**

```
**Input:** nums = [1,7,4,9,2,5]
**Output:** 6
**Explanation:** The entire sequence is a wiggle sequence with differences (6, -3, 5, -7, 3).
```

**Example 2:**

```
**Input:** nums = [1,17,5,10,13,15,10,5,16,8]
**Output:** 7
**Explanation:** There are several subsequences that achieve this length.
One is [1, 17, 10, 13, 10, 16, 8] with differences (16, -7, 3, -3, 6, -8).
```

**Example 3:**

```
**Input:** nums = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
**Output:** 2
```

**Constraints:**

* `1 <= nums.length <= 1000`
* `0 <= nums[i] <= 1000`

**Follow up:** Could you solve this in `O(n)` time?
