A parity balanced sequence is a sequence of integers such that the parity of consecutive terms is different. This is, your sequence is parity balanced if it is of the form even, odd, even, odd, even, odd… or odd, even, odd, even, odd, even… Given a sequence of integers, design a Dynamic Programming Algorithm to find the length of the longest increasing subsequence that is parity balanced.    Example: Given A=[3, 4, 2, 6, 8, 12, 5], your output should be 3, corresponding to the length of [3, 4, 5]. Note that [2, 6, 8, 12] is also increasing, but it is not parity balanced. Please answer the following parts:  1. Define the entries of your table in words. E.g. T(i) or T(i, j) is …2. State a recurrence for the entries of your table in terms of smaller subproblems. Don’t forget your base case(s).
