C++ Program to Maximize count of corresponding same elements in given Arrays by Rotation

Given two arrays arr1[] and arr2[] of N integers and array arr1[] has distinct elements. The task is to find the maximum count of corresponding same elements in the given arrays by performing cyclic left or right shift on array arr1[]. 
Examples:

Input: arr1[] = { 6, 7, 3, 9, 5 }, arr2[] = { 7, 3, 9, 5, 6 } 
Output: 5 
Explanation:
By performing cyclic left shift on array arr1[] by 1. 
Updated array arr1[] = {7, 3, 9, 5, 6}. 
This rotation contains a maximum number of equal elements between array arr1[] and arr2[].
Input: arr1[] = {1, 3, 2, 4}, arr2[] = {4, 2, 3, 1} 
Output: 2 
Explanation:
By performing cyclic left shift on array arr1[] by 1. 
Updated array arr1[] = {3, 2, 4, 1} 
This rotation contains a maximum number of equal elements between array arr1[] and arr2[]. 

Approach: This problem can be solved using Greedy Approach. Below are the steps: 

1. Store the position of all the elements of the array arr2[] in an array(say store[]).
2. For each element in the array arr1[], do the following: 
   • Find the difference(say diff) between the position of the current element in arr2[] with the position in arr1[].
   • If diff is less than 0 then update diff to (N – diff).
   • Store the frequency of current difference diff in a map.
3. After the above steps, the maximum frequency stored in map is the maximum number of equal elements after rotation on arr1[].

Below is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++

// C++ program of the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

// Function that prints maximum
// equal elements
void maximumEqual(int a[], int b[],
                  int n)
{

    // Vector to store the index
    // of elements of array b
    vector<int> store(1e5);

    // Storing the positions of
    // array B
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        store[b[i]] = i + 1;
    }

    // frequency array to keep count
    // of elements with similar
    // difference in distances
    vector<int> ans(1e5);

    // Iterate through all element in arr1[]
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {

        // Calculate number of
        // shift required to
        // make current element
        // equal
        int d = abs(store[a[i]]
                    - (i + 1));

        // If d is less than 0
        if (store[a[i]] < i + 1) {
            d = n - d;
        }

        // Store the frequency
        // of current diff
        ans[d]++;
    }

    int finalans = 0;

    // Compute the maximum frequency
    // stored
    for (int i = 0; i < 1e5; i++)
        finalans = max(finalans,
                       ans[i]);

    // Printing the maximum number
    // of equal elements
    cout << finalans << "
";
}

// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Given two arrays
    int A[] = { 6, 7, 3, 9, 5 };
    int B[] = { 7, 3, 9, 5, 6 };

    int size = sizeof(A) / sizeof(A[0]);

    // Function Call
    maximumEqual(A, B, size);
    return 0;
}

Output:

5

Time Complexity: O(N)
Auxiliary Space: O(N)
