Q1. You are given an Array of stocks denoting profits which you can get on day 1 by selling them, is of n size, and a query array. You have return array of size query.length, where ith value denotes no. of ways in which you can choose all the values from profit array where the acquired totalprofit is >= query[i];
On day1 if you choose some value, you will get full amount, day 2 the profit will divided by 2 , day 3 it will divided by 4 and so on
while doing half only integer value will count;
TestCase -
Stocks Profit on Day 1 - [10, 5]
Query - [10, 12, 15]
ansArray = [2, 1, 0];
ansArray[0] = 2, because we can choose values in 2 ways
first choose 10 on day1, and then 5 on day2, so 10 + 5/2 = 10 + 2 >= 10
second choose 5 on day1, and then 10 on day 2, so 5 + 10/2 = 5 + 5 >= 10
ansArray[1] = 1 because there is only one way to choose
choose 10 on day1 and then 5 on day 2, so 10 + 5/2 = 10 + 2 >= 12
5 and 10/2 wont work here;
similarly ansArray[2] = 0;
I was able to pass 8 testcase but failed the TimeComplexity Testcases which need better timeComplexity. Can you please help.
If you want to look at the second question as well -

Thanks in advance.
