Detect Alternating Pattern

Code

#include <stdio.h>

int is_alternating_pattern(int *mem, int k) {
    int temp = *mem;

    for(int i = 2; i < k; i += 2){
        if(*(mem + i) == temp){
            continue;
        }
        else{
            return 0;
        }
    }

    temp = *(mem + 1);
    for(int i = 3; i < k; i += 2){
        if(*(mem + i) == temp){
            continue;
        }
        else{
            return 0;
        }
    }

    return 1;
}

int main() {
    int n, k, arr[100];
    scanf("%d %d", &n, &k);

    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        scanf("%d", &arr[i]);
    }

    int res = is_alternating_pattern(arr, k);
    printf("%d", res);

    return 0;
}
