Solution: Sum of Mutated Array Closest to Target
Explore how to solve the problem of finding an integer value that, when replacing larger elements in an array, yields a sum closest to a given target. Learn to apply sorting and efficient search methods, calculate replacement values precisely, and understand the time and space complexity of this approach.

Statement
Given an integer array arr and a target value target, find an integer value such that if all the numbers in arr greater than value are replaced with a value, the sum of the array gets as close as possible to the target.
Choose the smaller value if there’s a tie (two value options are equally close to the targe).
Note: The answer doesn’t have to be a number from the array.
Constraints:
arr.length...
