+"""
+Using the Python language, have the function Consecutive(arr) take the array of
+ integers stored in arr and return the minimum number of integers needed to
+  make the contents of arr consecutive from the lowest number to the highest
+  number. For example: If arr contains [4, 8, 6] then the output should be 2
+  because two numbers need to be added to the array (5 and 7) to make it a
+  consecutive array of numbers from 4 to 8. Negative numbers may be entered
+  as parameters and no array will have less than 2 elements.
+"""
