Find all elements in array which have at-least two greater elements in C++



Suppose, we have an array of n numbers. We have to find all elements in array, which have at least two greater elements. If the array is like A = [2, 8, 7, 1, 5], then the result will be [2, 1, 5]

To solve this, we will find second max element, then print all elements which is less than or equal to second max value.

Example

#include<iostream> using namespace std; void searchElements(int arr[], int n) {    int first_max = INT_MIN, second_max = INT_MIN;    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {       if (arr[i] > first_max) {          second_max = first_max;          first_max = arr[i];       } else if (arr[i] > second_max)          second_max = arr[i];    }    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)    if (arr[i] < second_max)    cout << arr[i] << " "; } int main() {    int arr[] = { 2, 9, 1, 7, 5, 3, 17};    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);    cout << "Elements are: ";    searchElements(arr, n); }

Output

Elements are: 2 1 7 5 3
