Solution: Construct Target Array With Multiple Sums

Explore how to solve the problem of constructing a target array from an initial array of ones by reversing the process. Understand how max heaps prioritize the largest elements and how modulo operations reduce them step-by-step, enabling efficient verification of feasibility. Learn to apply this approach to optimize time and space complexity in dynamic array transformations.

Statement

You are given an array target of n integers.

Starting from an array arr of size n where every element is 1, you may perform the following operation any number of times:

  • Let x be the sum of all current elements in arr.

  • Pick an index i and set arr[i] = x.

Your task is to return True if it’s possible to construct target from arr, otherwise return False.

Constraints:

  • n == target.length

  • 11 \leq n 1000\leq 1000 ...
