DIY: Sliding Window Median

Explore how to calculate the median of each sliding window in an integer array by implementing an efficient algorithm in Scala. Understand the median concept for both odd and even window sizes, apply constraints, and return precise float results. This lesson helps build problem-solving skills essential for coding interviews using real-world examples.

Problem statement

Given an integer array nums and an integer k. There is a sliding window of size k which is moving from the very left of the array to the very right. We can only see the k numbers in the window. Each time the sliding window moves right by one position.

Return the median array for each window in the original array. Answers within 10510^{-5} ...
