Problem: hasAlternatingParity
Write a static method hasAlternatingParity that
returns whether or not an array of integers has alternating parity (true if
it does, false otherwise). The parity of an integer is 0 for even numbers
and 1 for odd numbers. To have alternating parity, a list would have to
alternate between even and odd numbers, as in the following list:
(3, 2, 19, 8, 43, 64, 1, 0, 3)
If an array called "data" had the values above stored in it, then the
following call:
hasAlternatingParity(data)
would return true. If instead the array stored the following values:
(2, 13, 4, 1, 0, 9, 2, 7, 4, 12, 3, 2)
then the call would return false because the list has two even numbers in a
row (4 and 12).
By definition, an empty list or a list of one element has alternating
parity. You may assume that the values in the array are greater than or
equal to 0.
