Solution: Create Maximum Number
Explore how to create the lexicographically largest number of a given length k from two arrays of digits. Understand how to split selections between arrays, pick maximum subsequences with a stack-based method, and merge them using two pointers to achieve the optimal merged number.
We'll cover the following...
Statement
You are given two integer arrays, nums1 and nums2, of lengths m and n, respectively. Each array represents the digits of a number.
You are also given an integer k. Create the largest possible number of length k (where k m n) using digits from both arrays. You may interleave digits from the two arrays, but the relative order of digits within the same array must be preserved.
Return an array of k digits representing the maximum number.
