Practice Problem
Maximum Average Subarray I
Difficulty: Easy
Find the contiguous subarray of a given length k that has the maximum average value.
Maximum Average Subarray I
You are given an integer array nums consisting of n elements, and an integer k.
Find a contiguous subarray whose length is equal to k that has the maximum average value and return this value. Any answer with a calculation error less than 10^-5 will be accepted.
Examples
Example 1:
Input: nums = [1, 12, -5, -6, 50, 3], k = 4
Output: 12.75
Explanation: Maximum average is (12 + (-5) + (-6) + 50) / 4 = 51 / 4 = 12.75Example 2:
Input: nums = [5], k = 1
Output: 5.0Example 3:
Input: nums = [0, 4, 0, 3, 2], k = 1
Output: 4.0
Explanation: When k = 1, the maximum average subarray is the single maximum element.Constraints
n == nums.length1 <= k <= n <= 10^5-10^4 <= nums[i] <= 10^4
Expected Complexity
- Time: O(n)
- Space: O(1)
