Longest same-results sequence of heads or tails
Exercise Type: Implementation
Consider this vector of coin toss results
tosses <- c("H", "T", "H", "T", "H", "T", "T", "T", "H", "T")
tosses
[1] "H" "T" "H" "T" "H" "T" "T" "T" "H" "T"
Instruction
Calculate the highest number of coin tosses when the result was the same in a sequence (either heads or tails). Implement a function that returns the length of this longest streak as a single integer value!
