## Description
 | 
						|
<section id='description'>
 | 
						|
The longest increasing subsequence problem is to find a subsequence of a given sequence in which the subsequence's elements are in sorted order, lowest to highest, and in which the subsequence is as long as possible. An example:
 | 
						|
For the following array:
 | 
						|
$\{3, 10, 2, 1, 20\}$
 | 
						|
Longest increasing sequence is:
 | 
						|
$\{3, 10, 20\}$
 | 
						|
For more information on this problem please see <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest increasing subsequence" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a>.

## Instructions
 | 
						|
<section id='instructions'>
 | 
						|
Write a function that takes an array of numbers as a parameter and returns the longest increasing subsequence.
 | 
						|
It is guaranteed that every array will have a longest increasing subsequence.
