HackerEarth Find the Next! problem solution

YASH PAL, 31 July 2024
In this HackerEarth Find the Next problem solution You are given an array A of length N. For any given integer X, you need to find an integer Z strictly greater than X such that Z is not present in the array A. You need to minimise the value of Z.

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

#define ll long long
using namespace std;

int main() {
ios_base::sync_with_stdio(false);
cin.tie(NULL);
int n,q;
cin>>n>>q;
int
ll arr[n+1];
for(int i=0;i<n;i++) cin>>arr[i];
map<ll,ll> mp;
sort(arr,arr+n);
for(int i=0;i<n;){
int j=i;
for(;j<n-1;j++) if(arr[j]<arr[j+1]-1) break;
for(int k=i;k<=j;k++) mp[arr[k]]=arr[j];
i=j+1;
}
while(q--){
ll x;
cin>>x;
if(mp[x]==0){
if(mp[x+1]==0) cout<<x+1<<"n";
else cout<<mp[x+1]+1<<"n";
} else cout<<mp[x]+1<<"n";
}
return 0;
}

Second solution

#include<bits/stdc++.h>

}
//cout<<"n";

for(int i=0;i<Q;i++)
{
int x=Queries[i];

//cout<<ind<<" ";//int val;
if(ind==N)
val=x+1,answer.push_back(x+1);
else if(A[ind]>x+1)
val=x+1,answer.push_back(x+1);
else
val=ans[A[ind]],answer.push_back(ans[A[ind]]);
//cout<<val<<"n";
}
return answer;
// Write your code here
