1471. The k Strongest Values in an Array Medium
1/**
2 * [1471] The k Strongest Values in an Array
3 *
4 * Given an array of integers arr and an integer k.
5 * A value arr[i] is said to be stronger than a value arr[j] if |arr[i] - m| > |arr[j] - m| where m is the median of the array.<br />
6 * If |arr[i] - m| == |arr[j] - m|, then arr[i] is said to be stronger than arr[j] if arr[i] > arr[j].
7 * Return a list of the strongest k values in the array. return the answer in any arbitrary order.
8 * Median is the middle value in an ordered integer list. More formally, if the length of the list is n, the median is the element in position ((n - 1) / 2) in the sorted list (0-indexed).
9 *
10 * For arr = [6, -3, 7, 2, 11], n = 5 and the median is obtained by sorting the array arr = [-3, 2, 6, 7, 11] and the median is arr[m] where m = ((5 - 1) / 2) = 2. The median is 6.
11 * For arr = [-7, 22, 17, 3], n = 4 and the median is obtained by sorting the array arr = [-7, 3, 17, 22] and the median is arr[m] where m = ((4 - 1) / 2) = 1. The median is 3.
12 *
13 *
14 * Example 1:
15 *
16 * Input: arr = [1,2,3,4,5], k = 2
17 * Output: [5,1]
18 * Explanation: Median is 3, the elements of the array sorted by the strongest are [5,1,4,2,3]. The strongest 2 elements are [5, 1]. [1, 5] is also accepted answer.
19 * Please note that although |5 - 3| == |1 - 3| but 5 is stronger than 1 because 5 > 1.
20 *
21 * Example 2:
22 *
23 * Input: arr = [1,1,3,5,5], k = 2
24 * Output: [5,5]
25 * Explanation: Median is 3, the elements of the array sorted by the strongest are [5,5,1,1,3]. The strongest 2 elements are [5, 5].
26 *
27 * Example 3:
28 *
29 * Input: arr = [6,7,11,7,6,8], k = 5
30 * Output: [11,8,6,6,7]
31 * Explanation: Median is 7, the elements of the array sorted by the strongest are [11,8,6,6,7,7].
32 * Any permutation of [11,8,6,6,7] is accepted.
33 *
34 *
35 * Constraints:
36 *
37 * 1 <= arr.length <= 10^5
38 * -10^5 <= arr[i] <= 10^5
39 * 1 <= k <= arr.length
40 *
