Write a function named contains-double in Scheme that takes a list as input and returns true if an item every appears twice in a row. You may assume the list is flat (i.e., no nested lists). For example, • (contains-double • (contains-double • (contains-double (contains-double ● (contains-double '(a b c 1 2)) should return false '(a b c 1 a)) should return false '(a b b c 1 a)) should return true '()) should return false '(5)) should return false

Write a function named contains-double in Scheme that takes a list as input and returns true if an item
every appears twice in a row. You may assume the list is flat (i.e., no nested lists).
For example,
• (contains-double '(a b c 1 2)) should return false
• (contains-double '(a b c 1 a)) should return false
• (contains-double
• (contains-double
• (contains-double
'(a b b c 1 a)) should return true
'()) should return false
(5)) should return false
