Find the Distance Value Between Two Arrays

Explore how to determine the distance value between two arrays by counting elements in one array that differ from all elements in another array by more than a given threshold. This lesson teaches how to approach and solve the problem using sorting, binary search, and logical reasoning.

We'll cover the following...

Statement

You are given two integer arrays, arr1 and arr2, along with an integer d. Your task is to find and return the distance value between these arrays.

Note: The distance value is defined as the count of elements in arr1 for which there is no element in arr2 such that ∣arr1[i]−arr2[j]∣<=|arr1[i]-arr2[j]| <= ...
