Problem: Final Array State After K Multiplication Operations I

easy
15 min
Explore how to find the final state of an integer array after performing k multiplication operations on its minimum elements. Learn to correctly identify and multiply the smallest values step-by-step using the top k elements pattern. This lesson helps you understand applying efficient selection techniques like heaps to manage minimum element operations and solve related problems effectively.

Statement

Given an integer array nums, an integer k, and an integer multiplier:

  • Perform k operations on nums.

  • In each operation:

    • Find the minimum element x in nums (if there are multiple occurrences of the minimum value, choose the first occurrence).

    • Replace x with x * multiplier.

Return the final state of nums after all k operations.

Constraints:

  • 1<=1 <= nums.length <=100<= 100

  • 1<=1 <= nums[i] <=100<= 100

  • 1<=1 <= k <=10<= 10

  • 1<=1 <= multiplier <=5<= 5
