<p>You are given an integer array <code>nums</code> (<strong>0-indexed</strong>). In one operation, you can choose an element of the array and increment it by <code>1</code>.</p> <ul> <li>For example, if <code>nums = [1,2,3]</code>, you can choose to increment <code>nums[1]</code> to make <code>nums = [1,<u><b>3</b></u>,3]</code>.</li> </ul> <p>Return <em>the <strong>minimum</strong> number of operations needed to make</em> <code>nums</code> <em><strong>strictly</strong> <strong>increasing</strong>.</em></p> <p>An array <code>nums</code> is <strong>strictly increasing</strong> if <code>nums[i] < nums[i+1]</code> for all <code>0 <= i < nums.length - 1</code>. An array of length <code>1</code> is trivially strictly increasing.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Example 1:</strong></p> <pre> <strong>Input:</strong> nums = [1,1,1] <strong>Output:</strong> 3 <strong>Explanation:</strong> You can do the following operations: 1) Increment nums[2], so nums becomes [1,1,<u><strong>2</strong></u>]. 2) Increment nums[1], so nums becomes [1,<u><strong>2</strong></u>,2]. 3) Increment nums[2], so nums becomes [1,2,<u><strong>3</strong></u>]. </pre> <p><strong>Example 2:</strong></p> <pre> <strong>Input:</strong> nums = [1,5,2,4,1] <strong>Output:</strong> 14 </pre> <p><strong>Example 3:</strong></p> <pre> <strong>Input:</strong> nums = [8] <strong>Output:</strong> 0 </pre> <p> </p> <p><strong>Constraints:</strong></p> <ul> <li><code>1 <= nums.length <= 5000</code></li> <li><code>1 <= nums[i] <= 10<sup>4</sup></code></li> </ul>
