Problem
You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums
. There exists an array arr
of length nums.length
, where arr[i]
is the sum of |i - j|
over all j
such that nums[j] == nums[i]
and j != i
. If there is no such j
, set arr[i]
to be 0
.
Return the array arr
.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [1,3,1,1,2] Output: [5,0,3,4,0] Explanation: When i = 0, nums[0] == nums[2] and nums[0] == nums[3]. Therefore, arr[0] = |0 - 2| + |0 - 3| = 5. When i = 1, arr[1] = 0 because there is no other index with value 3. When i = 2, nums[2] == nums[0] and nums[2] == nums[3]. Therefore, arr[2] = |2 - 0| + |2 - 3| = 3. When i = 3, nums[3] == nums[0] and nums[3] == nums[2]. Therefore, arr[3] = |3 - 0| + |3 - 2| = 4. When i = 4, arr[4] = 0 because there is no other index with value 2.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [0,5,3] Output: [0,0,0] Explanation: Since each element in nums is distinct, arr[i] = 0 for all i.
Constraints:
1 <= nums.length <= 105
0 <= nums[i] <= 109
