{ "data": { "question": { "questionId": "1657", "questionFrontendId": "1535", "boundTopicId": null, "title": "Find the Winner of an Array Game", "titleSlug": "find-the-winner-of-an-array-game", "content": "

Given an integer array arr of distinct integers and an integer k.

\n\n

A game will be played between the first two elements of the array (i.e. arr[0] and arr[1]). In each round of the game, we compare arr[0] with arr[1], the larger integer wins and remains at position 0, and the smaller integer moves to the end of the array. The game ends when an integer wins k consecutive rounds.

\n\n

Return the integer which will win the game.

\n\n

It is guaranteed that there will be a winner of the game.

Example 1:

\n\n
\nInput: arr = [2,1,3,5,4,6,7], k = 2\nOutput: 5\nExplanation: Let's see the rounds of the game:\nRound |       arr       | winner | win_count\n  1   | [2,1,3,5,4,6,7] | 2      | 1\n  2   | [2,3,5,4,6,7,1] | 3      | 1\n  3   | [3,5,4,6,7,1,2] | 5      | 1\n  4   | [5,4,6,7,1,2,3] | 5      | 2\nSo we can see that 4 rounds will be played and 5 is the winner because it wins 2 consecutive games.\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\nInput: arr = [3,2,1], k = 10\nOutput: 3\nExplanation: 3 will win the first 10 rounds consecutively.\n
