Description

Longest Continuous Subarray With Absolute Diff Less Than or Equal to Limit

Given an array of integers nums and an integer limit, return the size of the longest non-empty subarray such that the absolute difference between any two elements of this subarray is less than or equal to limit.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [8,2,4,7], limit = 4
Output: 2 
Explanation: All subarrays are: 
[8] with maximum absolute diff |8-8| = 0 <= 4.
[8,2] with maximum absolute diff |8-2| = 6 > 4. 
[8,2,4] with maximum absolute diff |8-2| = 6 > 4.
[8,2,4,7] with maximum absolute diff |8-2| = 6 > 4.
[2] with maximum absolute diff |2-2| = 0 <= 4.
[2,4] with maximum absolute diff |2-4| = 2 <= 4.
[2,4,7] with maximum absolute diff |2-7| = 5 > 4.
[4] with maximum absolute diff |4-4| = 0 <= 4.
[4,7] with maximum absolute diff |4-7| = 3 <= 4.
[7] with maximum absolute diff |7-7| = 0 <= 4. 
Therefore, the size of the longest subarray is 2.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [10,1,2,4,7,2], limit = 5
Output: 4 
Explanation: The subarray [2,4,7,2] is the longest since the maximum absolute diff is |2-7| = 5 <= 5.

Example 3:

Input: nums = [4,2,2,2,4,4,2,2], limit = 0
Output: 3

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 105
  • 1 <= nums[i] <= 109
  • 0 <= limit <= 109

Solution

class Solution {
public:
  int longestSubarray(vector<int>& nums, int limit) {
    deque<int> maxMonoQueue, minMonoQueue;
    int begin = 0;
    int answer = 0;
    for(int end = 0; end < nums.size(); ++end) {
      while(maxMonoQueue.size() && maxMonoQueue.back() < nums[end]) maxMonoQueue.pop_back();
      while(minMonoQueue.size() && minMonoQueue.back() > nums[end]) minMonoQueue.pop_back();
      maxMonoQueue.push_back(nums[end]);
      minMonoQueue.push_back(nums[end]);
      while(maxMonoQueue.size() && minMonoQueue.size() && maxMonoQueue.front() - minMonoQueue.front() > limit) {
        if(maxMonoQueue.front() == nums[begin]) maxMonoQueue.pop_front();
        if(minMonoQueue.front() == nums[begin]) minMonoQueue.pop_front();
        begin += 1;
      }

      answer = max(answer, end - begin + 1);
    }

    return answer;
  }
};
