# Task 1: Count Smaller
# =====================
#
# You are given an array of integers.
#
# Write a script to calculate the number of integers smaller than the integer
# at each index.
#
## Example 1
##
## Input: @int = (8, 1, 2, 2, 3)
## Output: (4, 0, 1, 1, 3)
##
## For index = 0, count of elements less 8 is 4.
## For index = 1, count of elements less 1 is 0.
## For index = 2, count of elements less 2 is 1.
## For index = 3, count of elements less 2 is 1.
## For index = 4, count of elements less 3 is 3.
#
## Example 2
##
## Input: @int = (6, 5, 4, 8)
## Output: (2, 1, 0, 3)
#
## Example 3
##
## Input: @int = (2, 2, 2)
## Output: (0, 0, 0)

# Straight forward, for each element of the array, walk the whole array,
