Solution

This problem can be solved using a greedy algorithm. Here are the steps:

  1. Sort the array in ascending order. This will ensure that the smallest numbers are considered first.

  2. Initialize an empty list to store the arrays.

  3. Iterate over the sorted array. For each number, check if it can be added to the last array in the list. If the difference between the number and the maximum element in the last array is less than or equal to k, add the number to the last array. Otherwise, start a new array with the number.

  4. After iterating over all the numbers, check if all the arrays in the list have size 3. If not, return an empty array.

  5. Return the list of arrays.

Here is a Python code that implements these steps:

def divide_array(nums, k):
    nums.sort()
    arrays = [[

You are given an integer array and a positive integer K. You have to tell if there exists i,j,k in the given array such that ar[i]+ar[j]+ar[k]=K, i≠j≠k.Input FormatThe first line of input contains T - the number of test cases. Its followed by 2T lines, the first line contains N and K - the size of the array and the number K. The second line contains the elements of the array.Output FormatFor each test case, print "true" if the arrays contains such elements, false otherwise, separated by new line.Constraints30 points1 <= T <= 1003 <= N <= 10070 points1 <= T <= 1003 <= N <= 1000General Constraints-100000 <= A[i] <= 1000000 <= K <= 100000ExampleInput35 601 20 40 100 8012 5412 45 52 65 21 645 234 -100 14 575 -80 1123 155 5 5Outputfalsetruetrue

You are given an array of positive integers nums.You need to select a subset of nums which satisfies the following condition:You can place the selected elements in a 0-indexed array such that it follows the pattern: [x, x2, x4, ..., xk/2, xk, xk/2, ..., x4, x2, x] (Note that k can be be any non-negative power of 2). For example, [2, 4, 16, 4, 2] and [3, 9, 3] follow the pattern while [2, 4, 8, 4, 2] does not.Return the maximum number of elements in a subset that satisfies these conditions.

Problem Statement You are given a function, int ElementsAndIndices(int arr[], int n); The function takes an integer array 'arr' of size 'n' as its arguments. Implement the function to find and return the number of array elements which are equal to their index value in array i.e. arr[k] = k, 0 <= k < n. Note: Indexing starts from 0. Return -1 if 'arr' is empty or None in case of python Example: Input: 10 1 12 3 5 8 9 7 12 23 Output: 3 Explanation: Index Element 0 10 1 1 2 12 3 3 4 5 5 8 6 9 7 7 8 12 9 23 Elements at index {1, 3, 7} are equal to their index values {1, 3, 7} respectively. Since, these are 3 elements, thus, output is 3. The custom input format for the above case: 10 10 1 12 3 5 8 9 7 12 23 (The first line represents the size of the array, the second line represents the elements of the array) Sample input -3 0 1 3 5 7 Sample Output 1 The custom input format for the above case: 6 -3 0 1 3 5 7 (The first line represents the size of the array, the second line represents the elements of the array) Instructions : This is a template based question, DO NOT write the "main" function. Your code is judged by an automated system, do not write any additional welcome/greeting messages. "Save and Test" only checks for basic test cases, more rigorous cases will be used to judge your code while scoring. Additional score will be given for writing optimized code both in terms of memory and execution time.

Given an integer array nums, return all the triplets [nums[i], nums[j], nums[k]] such that i != j, i != k, and j != k, and nums[i] + nums[j] + nums[k] == 0.Notice that the solution set must not contain duplicate triplets. Example 1:Input: nums = [-1,0,1,2,-1,-4]Output: [[-1,-1,2],[-1,0,1]]Explanation: nums[0] + nums[1] + nums[2] = (-1) + 0 + 1 = 0.nums[1] + nums[2] + nums[4] = 0 + 1 + (-1) = 0.nums[0] + nums[3] + nums[4] = (-1) + 2 + (-1) = 0.The distinct triplets are [-1,0,1] and [-1,-1,2].Notice that the order of the output and the order of the triplets does not matter.Example 2:Input: nums = [0,1,1]Output: []Explanation: The only possible triplet does not sum up to 0.Example 3:Input: nums = [0,0,0]Output: [[0,0,0]]Explanation: The only possible triplet sums up to 0. Constraints:3 <= nums.length <= 3000-105 <= nums[i] <= 105
