Find the greater number

#1


Second test is not passing. Showing wrong answer.

#2

Hello @ashish_meher,

This is happening for the test cases like:
4
1 2 3 2
Expected output:
2 3 -1 3
Your output:
2 3 3 -1

You have missed a very important part of question that array should be considered circular.

Hope, this would help.
Give a like, if you are satisfied.

#3

Will you please elaborate how the output is 2 3 -1 3 for the example you have given?

#4

Sure,

As the input array is:
1 2 3 2

  1. for 1, the first greater number on it’s left is 2

  2. for 2, it’s 3

  3. for 3, if we iterate toward right
    2 …no
    1…no (as array is circular)
    2…no
    -1 is answer (as we have iterated over all elements)

  4. for 2, if we iterate
    1…no
    2…no
    3…yes
    2 is answer.

Similaraly, for
5 5 5 5 5
Output is:
-1 -1 -1 -1 -1

Hope, this would help.

The expected output would be:
for 1, 2
for 2, 3
for 3, 5
for 2, 5 //first greater number on right
for 5, -1

If you still have doubts, feel free to ask.
