Solution: Final Array State After K Multiplication Operations I

Explore how to repeatedly find and multiply the minimum element in an array k times by applying the Top K elements pattern using a min heap. Learn to maintain order and efficiently update values, optimizing time and space complexity to solve this common coding interview problem.

Statement

Given an integer array nums, an integer k, and an integer multiplier:

  • Perform k operations on nums.

  • In each operation:

    • Find the minimum element x in nums (if there are multiple occurrences of the minimum value, choose the first occurrence).

    • Replace x with x * multiplier.

Return the final state of nums after all k operations.

Constraints:

  • 1<=1 <= nums.length <=100<= 100 ...
