Given an array arr[] of size N and an integer K. The task is to find the Kth largest element from the right of every element in the array. If there are not enough elements to the right then print the same element.
Examples:
Input: N = 6, K = 3, arr[] = {4, 5, 3, 6, 7, 2}
Output: 5 3 2 6 7 2
Explanation: The elements right to 4 are {5, 3, 6, 7, 2}.
So 3rd largest element to the right of 4 is 5.
Similarly, repeat the process for the rest of the elements.
And 7 and 2 does not have sufficient element to the right.
So, they are kept as it is.Input: N = 5, K = 2, arr[] = {-4, 7, 5, 3, 0}
Output: 5 3 0 3 0
Naive Approach: The naive approach is to sort every subarray to the right of every element and check whether the Kth largest element exists or not. If it exists, print the Kth largest element, else print the same element.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
C++14
// C++ program for the above approach #include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; // Function to find the Kth // largest element to the right // of every element int getKLargest( int * arr, int r, int l, int & K) { // Elements to the right // of current element vector< int > v(arr, arr + l + 1); // There are greater than K elements // to the right if (l - r >= K) { // Sort the vector sort(v.begin() + r + 1, v.end()); return v[l - K + 1]; } else return v[r]; } // Driver Code int main() { int arr[] = { -4, 7, 5, 3, 0 }; int N = sizeof (arr) / sizeof (arr[0]); int K = 2; for ( int i = 0; i < N; i++) cout << getKLargest(arr, i, N - 1, K) << " " ; return 0; } |
Java
// Java code for the above approach import java.util.*; class GFG{ // Function to sort the elements of the array // from index a to index b static void sort( int [] arr, int N, int a, int b) { // Variables to store start and end of the index // range int l = Math.min(a, b); int r = Math.max(a, b); // Temporary array int [] temp = new int [r - l + 1 ]; int j = 0 ; for ( int i = l; i <= r; i++) { temp[j] = arr[i]; j++; } // Sort the temporary array Arrays.sort(temp); // Modifying original array with temporary array // elements j = 0 ; for ( int i = l; i <= r; i++) { arr[i] = temp[j]; j++; } } // Function to find the Kth // largest element to the right // of every element static int getKLargest( int [] arr, int r, int l, int K) { // Elements to the right // of current element int n = arr.length; int [] v = new int [l + 1 ]; for ( int i = 0 ; i < l + 1 ; i++) { v[i] = arr[i]; } // There are greater than K elements // to the right if (l - r >= K) { // Sort the vector sort(v, n, r + 1 , n - 1 ); return v[l - K + 1 ]; } else return v[r]; } // Driver Code public static void main(String[] args) { int arr[] = { - 4 , 7 , 5 , 3 , 0 }; int N = arr.length; int K = 2 ; for ( int i = 0 ; i < N; i++) System.out.print(getKLargest(arr, i, N - 1 , K) + " " ); } } // This code is contributed by code_hunt. |

Approach based on Sets: Another approach is to use sets. Though both the approaches have same the time complexity, sets have an inbuilt sorting feature, it doesn’t require explicit sorting.
Below is the implementation of the above approach.

// C++ program for the above approach #include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; // Function to find the kth largest // element to the right int getKLargest(vector< int >& arr, int r, int l, int & k) { set< int > s(arr.begin() + r + 1, arr.end()); if (l - r >= k) { set< int >::iterator it = s.end(); advance(it, -k); return *it; } else return arr[r]; } // Driver code int main() { int arr[] = { -4, 7, 5, 3, 0 }; int N = sizeof (arr) / sizeof (arr[0]); int i, K = 2; vector< int > a(arr, arr + N); for (i = 0; i < N; i++) cout << getKLargest(a, i, N - 1, K) << " " ; return 0; } |

Efficient Approach: The idea to efficiently solve the problem is:
Insert each element of the array in a vector and sort them in decreasing order. Then delete each element and print the Kth largest from the sorted vector.
Follow the steps mentioned below to implement the idea:
- First, insert all the elements in a vector.
- Sort the vector in decreasing order.
- Iterate through the array from i = 0 to N:
- Delete arr[i] from the vector.
- If there are at least K elements left, print the Kth largest from the vector.
- Otherwise, print the same element.
Below is the implementation of the above approach.
C++
// C++ code for the above approach #include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; // Function to print the Kth // largest element to the right // of every element int getKLargest( int arr[], int n, int k) { // Storing elements in a vector vector< int > v(arr, arr + n ); // Sort the vector in decreasing order sort(v.begin(),v.end(),greater< int >()); // Iterating the for loop // to find kth largest element // for every element in the array for ( int i=0;i<n;i++) { // Erase the current element from the vector v.erase( remove (v.begin(), v.end(), arr[i]), v.end()); // If kth largest element is possible // then print it. if (v.size()>=k) { cout<<v[k-1]<< " " ; } // If kth largest is not possible then // print the element in the array. else { cout<<arr[i]<< " " ; } } } // Driver Code int main() { int arr[] = { -4, 7, 5, 3, 0 }; int N = sizeof (arr) / sizeof (arr[0]); int K = 2; // Function call getKLargest(arr, N , K); return 0; } // This code is contributed by Pushpesh raj. |
