Problem
We define a harmonious array as an array where the difference between its maximum value and its minimum value is exactly 1
.
Given an integer array nums
, return the length of its longest harmonious subsequence among all its possible subsequences.
A subsequence of array is a sequence that can be derived from the array by deleting some or no elements without changing the order of the remaining elements.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [1,3,2,2,5,2,3,7] Output: 5 Explanation: The longest harmonious subsequence is [3,2,2,2,3].
Example 2:
Input: nums = [1,2,3,4] Output: 2
Example 3:
Input: nums = [1,1,1,1] Output: 0
Constraints:
1 <= nums.length <= 2 * 104
-109 <= nums[i] <= 109
