Sum of minimum and maximum elements of all subarrays of size k.

Given an array of both positive and negative integers, the task is to compute sum of minimum and maximum elements of all sub-array of size k.

Examples:

Input : arr[] = {2, 5, -1, 7, -3, -1, -2}  
        K = 4
Output : 18
Explanation : Subarrays of size 4 are : 
     {2, 5, -1, 7},   min + max = -1 + 7 = 6
     {5, -1, 7, -3},  min + max = -3 + 7 = 4      
     {-1, 7, -3, -1}, min + max = -3 + 7 = 4
     {7, -3, -1, -2}, min + max = -3 + 7 = 4   
     Sum of all min & max = 6 + 4 + 4 + 4 
                          = 18



This problem is mainly an extension of below problem.
Maximum of all subarrays of size k

Method 1 (Simple)
Run two loops to generate all subarrays of size k and find maximum and minimum values. Finally return sum of all maximum and minimum elements.

Time taken by this solution is O(nk).

Method 2 (Efficient using Dequeue)
The idea is to use Dequeue data structure and sliding window concept. We create two empty double ended queues of size k (‘S’ , ‘G’) that only store indexes of elements of current window that are not useless. An element is useless if it can not be maximum or minimum of next subarrays.

 a) In deque 'G', we maintain decreasing order of 
    values from front to rear
 b) In deque 'S', we maintain increasing order of 
    values from front to rear

1) First window size K
  1.1) For deque 'G', if current element is greater 
       than rear end element, we remove rear while 
       current is greater.
  1.2) For deque 'S', if current element is smaller 
       than rear end element, we just pop it while 
       current is smaller.
  1.3) insert current element in both deque 'G' 'S'

2) After step 1, front of 'G' contains maximum element
   of first window and front of 'S' contains minimum 
   element of first window. Remaining elements of G
   and S may store maximum/minimum for subsequent 
   windows.

3) After that we do traversal for rest array elements.
  3.1) Front element of deque 'G' is greatest and 'S' 
       is smallest element of previous window 
  3.2) Remove all elements which are out of this 
       window [remove element at front of queue ]
  3.3) Repeat steps 1.1 , 1.2 ,1.3 

4) Return sum of minimum and maximum element of all 
   sub-array size k.

Below is implementation of above idea
