Problem Statement

Given an array nums sorted in increasing order, return the maximum between the count of positive integers and the count of negative integers.

Note: 0 is neither positive nor negative.

Examples

Example 1:

• Input: nums = [-4, -3, -1, 0, 1, 3, 5, 7]
• Expected Output: 4
• Justification: The array contains three negative integers (-4, -3, -1) and four positive integers (1, 3, 5, 7). The maximum count between negatives and positives is 4.

Example 2:

• Input: nums = [-8, -7, -5, -4, 0, 0, 0]
