A competition consists of n players numbered from 0 to n - 1.

\n\n

You are given an integer array skills of size n and a positive integer k, where skills[i] is the skill level of player i. All integers in skills are unique.

\n\n

All players are standing in a queue in order from player 0 to player n - 1.

\n\n

The competition process is as follows:

\n\n\n\n

The winner of the competition is the first player who wins k games in a row.

\n\n

Return the initial index of the winning player.

\n\n

 

\n

Example 1:

\n\n
\n

Input: skills = [4,2,6,3,9], k = 2

\n\n

Output: 2

\n\n

Explanation:

\n\n

Initially, the queue of players is [0,1,2,3,4]. The following process happens:

\n\n\n\n

Player 2 won k = 2 games in a row, so the winner is player 2.

\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\n

Input: skills = [2,5,4], k = 3

\n\n

Output: 1

\n\n

Explanation:

\n\n

Initially, the queue of players is [0,1,2]. The following process happens:

\n\n\n\n

Player 1 won k = 3 games in a row, so the winner is player 1.
