The problem
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.
Example
- 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].
Python solution
class Solution:
def largestSubarray(self, nums: List[int], k: int) -> List[int]:
i = nums.index(max(nums[: len(nums) - k + 1]))
return nums[i : i + k]Complexity
- Time
- O(n)where n is the length of the array
- Space · auxiliary
- O(1)
