<p>Given an integer array <code>nums</code> and an integer <code>k</code>, return <code>true</code> if there are two <strong>distinct indices</strong> <code>i</code> and <code>j</code> in the array such that <code>nums[i] == nums[j]</code> and <code>abs(i - j) &lt;= k</code>.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Example 1:</strong></p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> nums = [1,2,3,1], k = 3
<strong>Output:</strong> true
</pre>

<p><strong>Example 2:</strong></p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> nums = [1,0,1,1], k = 1
<strong>Output:</strong> true
</pre>

<p><strong>Example 3:</strong></p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> nums = [1,2,3,1,2,3], k = 2
<strong>Output:</strong> false
</pre>

<p><strong>Constraints:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li><code>1 &lt;= nums.length &lt;= 10<sup>5</sup></code></li>
	<li><code>-10<sup>9</sup> &lt;= nums[i] &lt;= 10<sup>9</sup></code></li>
	<li><code>0 &lt;= k &lt;= 10<sup>5</sup></code></li>
