Longest Arithmetic Subsequence of Given Difference in C++

Suppose we have an integer array arr and an integer difference, we have to find the length of the longest subsequence in arr which is an arithmetic sequence such that the difference between adjacent elements in the subsequence is same as the difference. So if the input is like [1,5,7,8,5,3,4,2,1] and difference is -2, then the output will be − 4, as the longest arithmetic sequence is [7,5,3,1]

To solve this, we will follow these steps −

• Define a map m
• n := size of array arr, set ans := 0
• for i in range 0 to n – 1
  • x := arr[i]
  • m[x] := 1 + m[x - d]
  • ans := max of and m[x]
• return ans

Example

Let us see the following implementation to get a better understanding −

 Live Demo

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
class Solution {
public:
   int longestSubsequence(vector<int>& arr, int d) {
      int n = arr.size();
      map <int,int> m;
      int ans = 0;
      for(int i =0;i<n;i++){
         int x = arr[i];
         m[x] = 1 + (m[x-d]);
         ans = max(ans,m[x]);
      }
      return ans;
   }
};
main(){
   vector<int> v1 = {1,5,7,8,5,3,4,2,1};
   Solution ob;
   cout <<ob.longestSubsequence(v1, -2);
}

Input

[1,5,7,8,5,3,4,2,1]
-2

Output

4
