Description

Given a circular integer array nums (i.e., the next element of nums[nums.length - 1] is nums[0]), return the next greater number for every element in nums.

The next greater number of a number x is the first greater number to its traversing-order next in the array, which means you could search circularly to find its next greater number. If it doesn’t exist, return -1 for this number.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,2,1] Output: [2,-1,2] Explanation: The first 1’s next greater number is 2; The number 2 can’t find next greater number. The second 1’s next greater number needs to search circularly, which is also 2.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,4,3] Output: [2,3,4,-1,4]

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 104
  • -109 <= nums[i] <= 109

Trick:繞兩圈,real_i = i % n

剩下的就都和 Next Greater Element I 一樣了。

class Solution {
public:
    vector<int> nextGreaterElements(vector<int>& nums) {
        unordered_map<int, int> mp;
        int n = nums.size();
        vector<int> res(n, -1);
        stack<int> st;
        for(int i = 0; i < 2 * n; i++) {
            int real_i = i % n;
            while(!st.empty() && nums[st.top()] < nums[real_i]) {
                res[st.top()] = nums[real_i];
                st.pop();
            }
            st.push(real_i);
        }
 
        return res;
    }
};
