Solution: Top K Frequent Elements

Explore how to identify the k most frequent elements in an array by using a hash map to count frequencies and a min-heap to maintain the top k elements. Understand the difference between naive and optimized approaches, analyze time and space complexities, and learn to implement a solution that efficiently handles frequency extraction from integer arrays.

Statement

Given an array of integers, arr, and an integer, k, return the kk most frequent elements.

Note: You can return the answer in any order.

Constraints:

  • 11 \leq arr.length \leq 10310^{3}
  • 104-10^{-4} \leq arr[i] \leq 10410^{4}
