Problem: Sliding Window Median

hard
40 min
Explore solving the Sliding Window Median problem by applying heaps to efficiently track medians in a moving window. Understand the problem constraints, practice rearranging logical steps, and implement a solution to sharpen your coding interview skills.

Statement

Given an integer array, nums, and an integer, k, there is a sliding window of size k, which is moving from the very left to the very right of the array. We can only see the k numbers in the window. Each time the sliding window moves right by one position.

Given this scenario, return the median of the each window. Answers within 10510^{-5} of the actual value will be accepted.

Constraints:

  • 11 \leq k \leq nums.length 103\leq 10^3
  • 231-2^{31} \leq nums[i] 2311\leq 2^{31} - 1
