+ * Problem Statement:
+ * Given an array arr[] of size N having distinct elements, the task is to find the next greater element for each element of the array in order of their appearance in the array.
+ * Next greater element means nearest element on right side which is greater than current element, 
+ * if there is no suxh element, then put -1 for that.
+ *

+  * Example 1: Input: arr=[1,3,2,4] n=4

+    Example 2: Input: arr=[6 8 0 1 3] n=5
