Solution: Maximum Value at a Given Index in a Bounded Array

Explore how to maximize the value at a given index in a bounded array under strict sum constraints. Understand the use of modified binary search combined with arithmetic series calculations to efficiently construct the array. Gain skills to apply this optimized approach to solve related coding interview problems involving constraints and sequence properties.

Statement

Given three positive integers, n, index, and maxSum, output the nums[index] by constructing an array of nums with the length of n, which satisfies the following conditions:

  • The length of the array nums is equal to n.

  • Each element nums[i] is a positive integer, where 11\leq ...
