Scan Memory for Three Consecutive Increasing Values

Code

#include <stdio.h>

int find_pattern(int *mem, int n) {
    int pos = 0;
    for(int i=0; i<n-3; i++){
        if((*mem)+1 == *(mem+1) && (*(mem+1)+1) == *(mem+2)) {
            int count = pos;
            return count;
        }
        pos++;
        mem++;
    }
    return -1;
}

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

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

    int res = find_pattern(arr, n);
    printf("%d", res);

    return 0;
}
