+You are given an array of integers, @ints.
+Find all the peaks in the array, a peak is an element that is strictly greater than its left and right neighbours. Return the indices of all such peak positions.
+
+Example 1
+
+Input: @ints = (1, 3, 2)
+Output: (1)
+
+
+Example 2
+
+Input: @ints = (2, 4, 6, 5, 3)
+Output: (2)
+
+
+Example 3
+
+Input: @ints = (1, 2, 3, 2, 4, 1)
+Output: (2, 4)
+
+
+Example 4
+
+Input: @ints = (5, 3, 1)
+Output: (0)
