Create Maximum Number

Understand how to combine digits from two arrays to create the maximum number of specified length by using the two pointers technique. This lesson helps you apply order preservation rules and efficiently interleave digits to solve linear data structure problems.

We'll cover the following...

Statement

You are given two integer arrays, nums1 and nums2, of lengths m and n, respectively. Each array represents the digits of a number.

You are also given an integer k. Create the largest possible number of length k (where k ≤\leq m ++ n) using digits from both arrays. You may interleave digits from the two arrays, but the relative order of digits within the same array must be preserved. ...
