Solution: Kth Largest Element in an Array
Explore an algorithm that identifies the kth largest element in an array by maintaining a min-heap of size k. Learn how pushing and popping elements keeps only the largest k values to optimize performance, and understand the time and space complexity of this approach.

Statement
Given an integer array, nums, and an integer, k, determine and return the kth largest element in the array.
Note: The
kthlargest element is defined with respect to the array’s sorted order (descending), and does not necessarily correspond to thekthunique value.
Constraints:
-
knums.length -
