Solution: Kth Largest Element in an Array
Understand how to determine the kth largest element in an array by maintaining a min-heap of size k. Explore an efficient algorithm that avoids full sorting, focusing on keeping only the k largest elements during iteration. Learn to implement this approach and analyze its time and space complexities.

Statement
Given an integer array, nums, and an integer, k, determine and return the kth largest element in the array.
Note: The
kthlargest element is defined with respect to the array’s sorted order (descending), and does not necessarily correspond to thekthunique value.
Constraints:
-
knums.length -
