This module will contain all functions that you must implement. It will serve as the main file to be created during testing.
Usage:
- Contains functions that will be implemented to stop the Alien Invasion!

Alien Invasion Class
Contains three functions to be implemented:
1. `is_sorted(A)` - returns whether the array is sorted.
2. `count_markers(A, c)` - returns the number of indices `i` such that
| A[i] - i | <= c.
3. `break_control(A, c)` - returns a "random" index that satisfies
|A[i] - i | <= c.
