BJP4 Exercise 7.4: isSorted

Language/Type: Java arrays
Author: Marty Stepp (on 2016/09/08)

Write a static method named isSorted that accepts an array of doubles as a parameter and returns true if the list is in sorted (nondecreasing) order and false otherwise. For example, if arrays named list1 and list2 store {16.1, 12.3, 22.2, 14.4} and {1.5, 4.3, 7.0, 19.5, 25.1, 46.2} respectively, the calls isSorted(list1) and isSorted(list2) should return false and true respectively. Assume the array has at least one element. A one-element array is considered to be sorted.
