Find Maximum Subarray Length with K Distinct

MediumPython

Problem

Write a function to solve a specific problem, and be prepared to code during the interview for RTI International.

Implement longest_subarray_at_most_k_distinct(nums, k), which returns the length of the longest contiguous subarray containing at most k distinct integers. Use a zero-based integer array and assume 1 <= k <= len(nums).

Constraints

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 1000
  • 1 <= k <= nums.length
  • -10^9 <= nums[i] <= 10^9
  • The subarray must be contiguous

Function Signature
