A sequence of numbers is called arithmetic if it consists of at least two elements, and the difference between every two consecutive elements is the same. More formally, a sequence s is arithmetic if and only if s[i+1] - s[i] == s[1] - s[0] for all valid i.
For example, these are arithmetic sequences:
1, 3, 5, 7, 9 7, 7, 7, 7 3, -1, -5, -9
The following sequence is not arithmetic:
1, 1, 2, 5, 7
You are given an array of n integers, nums, and two arrays of m integers each, l and r, representing the m range queries, where the ith query is the range [l[i], r[i]]. All the arrays are 0-indexed.
Return a list of boolean elements answer, where answer[i] is true if the subarray nums[l[i]], nums[l[i]+1], ... , nums[r[i]] can be rearranged to form an arithmetic sequence, and false otherwise.
Example 1:
Input: nums =[4,6,5,9,3,7], l =[0,0,2], r =[2,3,5]Output:[true,false,true]Explanation: In the 0th query, the subarray is [4,6,5]. This can be rearranged as [6,5,4], which is an arithmetic sequence. In the 1st query, the subarray is [4,6,5,9]. This cannot be rearranged as an arithmetic sequence. In the 2nd query, the subarray is[5,9,3,7]. Thiscan be rearranged as[3,5,7,9], which is an arithmetic sequence.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [-12,-9,-3,-12,-6,15,20,-25,-20,-15,-10], l = [0,1,6,4,8,7], r = [4,4,9,7,9,10] Output: [false,true,false,false,true,true]
Constraints:
n == nums.lengthm == l.lengthm == r.length2 <= n <= 5001 <= m <= 5000 <= l[i] < r[i] < n-105 <= nums[i] <= 105NeetCodeIO
