Here's how to find the number of supercells: A supercell is a cell whose value is strictly greater than all its immediate neighbors (up, down, left, right). Since this is a row, we only consider left and right neighbors. Step 1: Evaluate each cell in the row. The row is: 8010 | 2367 | 942 | 1163 | 125 | 3418 | 3814 | 3184 | 3481 8010: Only has a right neighbor (2367). 8010 > 2367 (True). So, 8010 is a supercell. 2367: Left neighbor (8010), Right neighbor (942). 2367 > 8010 (False). So, 2367 is not a supercell. 942: Left neighbor (2367), Right neighbor (1163). 942 > 2367 (False). So, 942 is not a supercell. 1163: Left neighbor (942), Right neighbor (125). 1163 > 942 (True) and 1163 > 125 (True). So, 1163 is a supercell. 125: Left neighbor (1163), Right neighbor (3418). 125 > 1163 (False). So, 125 is not a supercell. 3418: Left neighbor (125), Right neighbor (3814). 3418 > 125 (True) but 3418 > 3814 (False). So, 3418 is not a supercell. 3814: Left neighbor (3418), Right neighbor (3184). 3814 > 3418 (True) and 3814 > 3184 (True). So, 3814 is a supercell. 3184: Left neighbor (3814), Right neighbor (3481). 3184 > 3814 (False). So, 3184 is not a supercell. 3481: Only has a left neighbor (3184). 3481 > 3184 (True). So, 3481 is a supercell. Step 2: Count the identified supercells. The supercells are: 8010, 1163, 3814, 3481. The number of supercells is 4. 4 3 done, 2 left today. You're making progress.
