Elements After the First Target
Apple● EasyNEW GRADPHONE SCREENProblem statement
Given the integer list values and an integer target that occurs in it, return every element strictly after the first occurrence of target, preserving order.
For this exercise, values and target are non-null integers. If target occurs more than once, use its first occurrence. A target at the final position produces an empty list.
What the interview report shared
The original task allowed generic objects. Its examples included getFollowingElements([1,2,3,4], 2) -> [3,4] and getFollowingElements([a,b,c,d,e], e) -> []. A null target was reported to raise an error. The executable practice scope uses the integer example family and excludes null inputs.
Function
getFollowingElements(values: int[], target: int) → int[]Examples
Example 1
values = [1,2,3,4]target = 2return = [3,4]The elements after the first 2 are 3 and 4.
Example 2
values = [5,6,5,7]target = 5return = [6,5,7]The first occurrence determines the suffix; a later occurrence is retained as an ordinary element.
Example 3
values = [1,2]target = 2return = []No elements follow the final entry.
Constraints
1 <= values.length <= 10^5.-10^9 <= values[i], target <= 10^9.targetoccurs at least once.
