We'll cover the following
Statement
You are given an array, nums
, consisting of positive integers of size n
and another array queries
of size m
. For each query queries
, the goal is to make all elements of nums
equal to queries[i]
. To achieve this, you can perform the following operation any number of times:
Increase or decrease an element of
nums
by 1.
Return an array answer
of size m
, where answer[i]
is the minimum number of operations needed to make all elements of nums
equal to queries[i]
. After processing each query, the nums
array is reset to its original state.
