Solution: Maximum Product After K Increments
Explore how to maximize the product of an array by distributing k increments to balance element values. Understand the top k elements pattern and min heap usage to increment the smallest numbers first, boosting the overall product before returning the result modulo 10^9+7.
We'll cover the following...
Statement
You are given an array, nums, consisting of non-negative integers, and an integer k representing the maximum number of allowed operations.
In each operation, you may select any element in nums and increment it by k such operations.
Your task is to maximize the product of all elements in the array after performing up to k operations. As the resulting product can be very large, return the product modulo
Note: Ensure that the product is maximized before applying the modulo operation.
Constraints:
nums.length,knums[i]...
