HackerEarth Easy Queries problem solution

YASH PAL, 31 July 2024
In this HackerEarth Easy Queries problem solution, you are given an array of size N in which the value of the elements is either 0 or 1. All the elements of the array are numbered from position 0 to N – 1. You are given some queries which can be of the following 2 types.
0 index: In this type of query you have to find the nearest left and nearest right element from the position index in the array whose value is 1.
1 index: In this type of query you need to change the value at position index to 1 if its previous value is 0 or else leave it unchanged.
