P13 - Run-length encoding of a list (direct solution).
Implement the so-called run-length encoding data compression method directly. I.e. don’t use other methods you’ve written (like P09’s pack); do all the work directly.
Example:
scala
scala> encodeDirect(List('a, 'a, 'a, 'a, 'b, 'c, 'c, 'a, 'a, 'd, 'e, 'e, 'e, 'e))
res0: List[(Int, Symbol)] = List((4,'a), (1,'b), (2,'c), (2,'a), (1,'d), (4,'e))
