1343. Number of Sub-arrays of Size K and Average Greater than or Equal to Threshold

Description

Given an array of integers arr and two integers k and threshold, return the number of sub-arrays of size k and average greater than or equal to threshold.

 

Example 1:

Input: arr = [2,2,2,2,5,5,5,8], k = 3, threshold = 4
Output: 3
Explanation: Sub-arrays [2,5,5],[5,5,5] and [5,5,8] have averages 4, 5 and 6 respectively. All other sub-arrays of size 3 have averages less than 4 (the threshold).

Example 2:

Input: arr = [11,13,17,23,29,31,7,5,2,3], k = 3, threshold = 5
Output: 6
Explanation: The first 6 sub-arrays of size 3 have averages greater than 5. Note that averages are not integers.

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= arr.length <= 105
  • 1 <= arr[i] <= 104
  • 1 <= k <= arr.length
  • 0 <= threshold <= 104

Solutions

Solution 1: Sliding Window

We can multiply threshold by $k$, so that we can directly compare the sum within the window with threshold.

We maintain a sliding window of length $k$, and for each window, we calculate the sum $s$. If $s$ is greater than or equal to threshold, we increment the answer.

The time complexity is $O(n)$, where $n$ is the length of the array arr. The space complexity is $O(1)$.
