Problem
You are given an integer array nums
and an integer threshold
.
Find any subarray of nums
of length k
such that every element in the subarray is greater than threshold / k
.
Return the size of any such subarray. If there is no such subarray, return -1
.
A subarray is a contiguous non-empty sequence of elements within an array.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [1,3,4,3,1], threshold = 6 Output: 3 Explanation: The subarray [3,4,3] has a size of 3, and every element is greater than 6 / 3 = 2. Note that this is the only valid subarray.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [6,5,6,5,8], threshold = 7 Output: 1 Explanation: The subarray [8] has a size of 1, and 8 > 7 / 1 = 7. So 1 is returned. Note that the subarray [6,5] has a size of 2, and every element is greater than 7 / 2 = 3.5. Similarly, the subarrays [6,5,6], [6,5,6,5], [6,5,6,5,8] also satisfy the given conditions. Therefore, 2, 3, 4, or 5 may also be returned.
Constraints:
1 <= nums.length <= 105
1 <= nums[i], threshold <= 109
