    Problem

    There are n people that are split into some unknown number of groups. Each person is labeled with a unique ID from 0 to n - 1.

    You are given an integer array groupSizes, where groupSizes[i] is the size of the group that person i is in. For example, if groupSizes[1] = 3, then person 1 must be in a group of size 3.

    Return a list of groups such that each person i is in a group of size groupSizes[i].

    Each person should appear in exactly one group, and every person must be in a group. If there are multiple answers, return any of them. It is guaranteed that there will be at least one valid solution for the given input.

      Example 1:

    Input: groupSizes = [3,3,3,3,3,1,3]
    Output: [[5],[0,1,2],[3,4,6]]
    Explanation: 
    The first group is [5]. The size is 1, and groupSizes[5] = 1.
    The second group is [0,1,2]. The size is 3, and groupSizes[0] = groupSizes[1] = groupSizes[2] = 3.
    The third group is [3,4,6]. The size is 3, and groupSizes[3] = groupSizes[4] = groupSizes[6] = 3.
    Other possible solutions are [[2,1,6],[5],[0,4,3]] and [[5],[0,6,2],[4,3,1]].
    

    Example 2:

    Input: groupSizes = [2,1,3,3,3,2]
    Output: [[1],[0,5],[2,3,4]]

    Solution (Java)

    class Solution {
        public List<List<Integer>> groupThePeople(int[] groupSizes) {
            Map<Integer, List<Integer>> map = new HashMap<>();
            for (int i = 0; i < groupSizes.length; i++) {
                List<Integer> list = map.getOrDefault(groupSizes[i], new ArrayList<>());
                list.add(i);
                map.put(groupSizes[i], list);
            }
            List<List<Integer>> result = new ArrayList<>();
            for (Map.Entry<Integer, List<Integer>> entry : map.entrySet()) {
                List<Integer> list = entry.getValue();
                int i = 0;
                do {
                    result.add(list.subList(i, i + entry.getKey()));
                    i += entry.getKey();
                } while (i + entry.getKey() <= list.size());
            }
            return result;
        }
    }
