You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums
. Rearrange the values of nums
according to the following rules:
- Sort the values at odd indices of
nums
in non-increasing order.<ul> <li>For example, if <code>nums = [4,<strong><u>1</u></strong>,2,<u><strong>3</strong></u>]</code> before this step, it becomes <code>[4,<u><strong>3</strong></u>,2,<strong><u>1</u></strong>]</code> after. The values at odd indices <code>1</code> and <code>3</code> are sorted in non-increasing order.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Sort the values at <strong>even indices</strong> of <code>nums</code> in <strong>non-decreasing</strong> order. <ul> <li>For example, if <code>nums = [<u><strong>4</strong></u>,1,<u><strong>2</strong></u>,3]</code> before this step, it becomes <code>[<u><strong>2</strong></u>,1,<u><strong>4</strong></u>,3]</code> after. The values at even indices <code>0</code> and <code>2</code> are sorted in non-decreasing order.</li> </ul> </li>
Return the array formed after rearranging the values of nums
.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [4,1,2,3] Output: [2,3,4,1] Explanation: First, we sort the values present at odd indices (1 and 3) in non-increasing order. So, nums changes from [4,1,2,3] to [4,3,2,1]. Next, we sort the values present at even indices (0 and 2) in non-decreasing order. So, nums changes from [4,1,2,3] to [2,3,4,1]. Thus, the array formed after rearranging the values is [2,3,4,1].
Example 2:
Input: nums = [2,1] Output: [2,1] Explanation: Since there is exactly one odd index and one even index, no rearrangement of values takes place. The resultant array formed is [2,1], which is the same as the initial array.
