Description: Largest Positive Integer That Exists With Its Negative
Given an integer array nums
that does not contain any zeros, find the largest positive integer k
such that -k
also exists in the array.
Return the positive integer k
. If there is no such integer, return -1
.
Example 1
1 2 3 |
<strong>Input:</strong> nums = [-1,2,-3,3] <strong>Output:</strong> 3 <strong>Explanation:</strong> 3 is the only valid k we can find in the array. |
Example 2
1 2 3 |
<strong>Input:</strong> nums = [-1,10,6,7,-7,1] <strong>Output:</strong> 7 <strong>Explanation:</strong> Both 1 and 7 have their corresponding negative values in the array. 7 has a larger value. |
Example 3
1 2 3 |
<strong>Input:</strong> nums = [-10,8,6,7,-2,-3] <strong>Output:</strong> -1 <strong>Explanation:</strong> There is no a single valid k, we return -1. |
Constraints
1 <= nums.length <= 1000
-1000 <= nums[i] <= 1000
nums[i] != 0
Solution
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 |
