You are given an array colors
, in which there are three colors: 1
,
2
and 3
.
You are also given some queries. Each query consists of two integers i
and
c
, return the shortest distance between the given
index i
and the target color c
. If there is no solution
return -1
.
Example 1:
Input: colors = [1,1,2,1,3,2,2,3,3], queries = [[1,3],[2,2],[6,1]] Output: [3,0,3] Explanation: The nearest 3 from index 1 is at index 4 (3 steps away). The nearest 2 from index 2 is at index 2 itself (0 steps away). The nearest 1 from index 6 is at index 3 (3 steps away).
Example 2:
Input: colors = [1,2], queries = [[0,3]] Output: [-1] Explanation: There is no 3 in the array.
Constraints:
1 <= colors.length <= 5*10^4
1 <= colors[i] <= 3
1 <= queries.length <= 5*10^4
queries[i].length == 2
0 <= queries[i][0] < colors.length
1 <= queries[i][1] <= 3
