what is the advantage of using a Set ? and not something from the List interface.

Can the List you should return contain more than two indexes? if more than 1 combination equals the target number.

i did it in the same way, but i passed all the test

import java.util.*;
class Solution {

public static String isSortedAndHow(int[] array) {
int max = array[0];
for(int i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
if(max < array[i]) {
max = array[i];
}

}

 
if(max == array[array.length - 1]) {
  return "yes, ascending";

}

if( max == array[0]) {
  return "yes, descending"; 
}
return "no"; 

}

}
it wont pass Test3 should return no but was yes, ascending
can someone help out??
