1409. Queries on a Permutation With Key
https://leetcode.com/problems/queries-on-a-permutation-with-key
Description
Given the array queries of positive integers between 1 and m, you have to process all queries[i] (from i=0 to i=queries.length-1) according to the following rules:
In the beginning, you have the permutation
P=[1,2,3,...,m].For the current
i, find the position ofqueries[i]in the permutationP(indexing from 0) and then move this at the beginning of the permutationP.Notice that the position ofqueries[i]inPis the result forqueries[i].
Return an array containing the result for the given queries.
Example 1:
**Input:** queries = [3,1,2,1], m = 5
**Output:** [2,1,2,1]
**Explanation:** The queries are processed as follow:
For i=0: queries[i]=3, P=[1,2,3,4,5], position of 3 in P is **2**, then we move 3 to the beginning of P resulting in P=[3,1,2,4,5].
For i=1: queries[i]=1, P=[3,1,2,4,5], position of 1 in P is **1**, then we move 1 to the beginning of P resulting in P=[1,3,2,4,5].
For i=2: queries[i]=2, P=[1,3,2,4,5], position of 2 in P is **2**, then we move 2 to the beginning of P resulting in P=[2,1,3,4,5].
For i=3: queries[i]=1, P=[2,1,3,4,5], position of 1 in P is **1**, then we move 1 to the beginning of P resulting in P=[1,2,3,4,5].
Therefore, the array containing the result is [2,1,2,1]. Example 2:
**Input:** queries = [4,1,2,2], m = 4
**Output:** [3,1,2,0]Example 3:
**Input:** queries = [7,5,5,8,3], m = 8
**Output:** [6,5,0,7,5]Constraints:
1 <= m <= 10^31 <= queries.length <= m1 <= queries[i] <= m
