Solution: Smallest Range Covering Elements from K Lists
Explore how to identify the smallest range that includes at least one element from each of k sorted lists by using a min heap approach. Understand the process of dynamically tracking range bounds, updating the range efficiently, and handling multiple sorted lists. This lesson helps you implement a solution that maintains one element per list in a priority queue to determine the minimal covering range, while analyzing the time and space complexity tradeoffs.
