In a normal array, there's an easy way to acquire the next immediate larger element. We'd stay on one element, and then would simply keep moving up on the indices, performing a comparison against each.

This would continue until we hit the end of the array.

xxxxxxxxxx

[5, 4, 3, 6]

// starting at 5, we'd check each number

// 5 > 4...

// 5 > 3...

// eventually we'd see 6 > 5
