The problem

Given the 0-indexed arrays prices and profits of length n. There are n items in an store where the ith item has a price of prices[i] and a profit of profits[i].

Example

Input
prices = [10,2,3,4], profits = [100,2,7,10]
Output
19
Explanation
We can't pick the item with index i=0 since there are no indices j and k such that the condition holds.

Python solution

Python
class BinaryIndexedTree:
    def __init__(self, n: int):
        self.n = n
        self.c = [0] * (n + 1)

    def update(self, x: int, v: int):
        while x <= self.n:
            self.c[x] = max(self.c[x], v)
            x += x & -x

    def query(self, x: int) -> int:
        mx = 0
        while x:
            mx = max(mx, self.c[x])
            x -= x & -x
        return mx


class Solution:
    def maxProfit(self, prices: List[int], profits: List[int]) -> int:
        n = len(prices)
        left = [0] * n
        right = [0] * n

        m = max(prices)
        tree1 = BinaryIndexedTree(m + 1)
        tree2 = BinaryIndexedTree(m + 1)

        for i, x in enumerate(prices):
            left[i] = tree1.query(x - 1)
            tree1.update(x, profits[i])
        for i in range(n - 1, -1, -1):
            x = m + 1 - prices[i]
            right[i] = tree2.query(x - 1)
            tree2.update(x, profits[i])

        return max(
            (l + x + r for l, x, r in zip(left, profits, right) if l and r), default=-1
        )
