+# TASK #1 › Leader Element
+# Submitted by: Mohammad S Anwar
+#
+# You are given an array @A containing distinct integers.
+#
+# Write a script to find all leader elements in the array @A. Print (0) if none found.
+#

+#
+#     Input: @A = (9, 10, 7, 5, 6, 1)
+#     Output: (10, 7, 6, 1)
+#
+# Example 2:
+#
+#     Input: @A = (3, 4, 5)
+#     Output: (5)
+#
