Problem
You are given an integer array nums
and a positive integer k
.
Return the number of subarrays where the maximum element of nums
appears at least k
times in that subarray.
A subarray is a contiguous sequence of elements within an array.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [1,3,2,3,3], k = 2 Output: 6 Explanation: The subarrays that contain the element 3 at least 2 times are: [1,3,2,3], [1,3,2,3,3], [3,2,3], [3,2,3,3], [2,3,3] and [3,3].
Example 2:
Input: nums = [1,4,2,1], k = 3 Output: 0 Explanation: No subarray contains the element 4 at least 3 times.
Constraints:
1 <= nums.length <= 105
1 <= nums[i] <= 106
1 <= k <= 105
