Maximum in array which is at-least twice of other elements
Given an array of integers of length n. Our task is to return the index of the max element if the it is at least twice as much as every other number in the array. If the max element does not satisfy the condition return -1.
Examples:
Input : arr = {3, 6, 1, 0} Output : 1 Here, 6 is the largest integer, and for every other number in the array x, 6 is more than twice as big as x. The index of value 6 is 1, so we return 1. Input : arr = {1, 2, 3, 4} Output : -1 4 isn't at least as big as twice the value of 3, so we return -1.
Approach : Scan through the array to find the unique largest element m, keeping track of it’s index maxIndex. Scan through the array again. If we find some x != m with m < 2*x, we should return -1. Otherwise, we should return maxIndex.
