1708. Largest Subarray Length K

Description

An array A is larger than some array B if for the first index i where A[i] != B[i], A[i] > B[i].

For example, consider 0-indexing:

• [1,3,2,4] > [1,2,2,4], since at index 1, 3 > 2.
• [1,4,4,4] < [2,1,1,1], since at index 0, 1 < 2.

A subarray is a contiguous subsequence of the array.

Given an integer array nums of distinct integers, return the largest subarray of nums of length k.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,4,5,2,3], k = 3
Output: [5,2,3]
Explanation: The subarrays of size 3 are: [1,4,5], [4,5,2], and [5,2,3].
Of these, [5,2,3] is the largest.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,4,5,2,3], k = 4
Output: [4,5,2,3]
Explanation: The subarrays of size 4 are: [1,4,5,2], and [4,5,2,3].
Of these, [4,5,2,3] is the largest.

Example 3:

Input: nums = [1,4,5,2,3], k = 1
Output: [5]

 

Constraints:

• 1 <= k <= nums.length <= 105
• 1 <= nums[i] <= 109
• All the integers of nums are unique.

 

Follow up: What if the integers in nums are not distinct?

Solutions

Solution 1: Simulation

All integers in the array are distinct, so we can first find the index of the maximum element in the range $[0,..n-k]$, and then take $k$ elements starting from this index.

The time complexity is $O(n)$, where $n$ is the length of the array. Ignoring the space consumption of the answer, the space complexity is $O(1)$.
