Problem
You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums
and an integer value
.
In one operation, you can add or subtract value
from any element of nums
.
- For example, if
nums = [1,2,3]
andvalue = 2
, you can choose to subtractvalue
fromnums[0]
to makenums = [-1,2,3]
.
The MEX (minimum excluded) of an array is the smallest missing non-negative integer in it.
- For example, the MEX of
[-1,2,3]
is0
while the MEX of[1,0,3]
is2
.
Return **the maximum MEX of *nums
* after applying the mentioned operation **any number of times****.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [1,-10,7,13,6,8], value = 5
Output: 4
Explanation: One can achieve this result by applying the following operations:
- Add value to nums[1] twice to make nums = [1,0,7,13,6,8]
- Subtract value from nums[2] once to make nums = [1,0,2,13,6,8]
- Subtract value from nums[3] twice to make nums = [1,0,2,3,6,8]
The MEX of nums is 4. It can be shown that 4 is the maximum MEX we can achieve.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [1,-10,7,13,6,8], value = 7
Output: 2
Explanation: One can achieve this result by applying the following operation:
- subtract value from nums[2] once to make nums = [1,-10,0,13,6,8]
The MEX of nums is 2. It can be shown that 2 is the maximum MEX we can achieve.
Constraints:
1 <= nums.length, value <= 105
-109 <= nums[i] <= 109
Solution (Java)
class Solution {
public int findSmallestInteger(int[] A, int k) {
int stop = 0, count[] = new int[k];
for (int a : A)
count[(a % k + k) % k]++;
for (int i = 0; i < k; ++i)
if (count[i] < count[stop])
stop = i;
return k * count[stop] + stop;
}
}
Explain:
nope.
Complexity:
- Time complexity : O(n).
- Space complexity : O(n).
