503. Next Greater Element II
Given a circular array (the next element of the last element is the first element of the array), print the Next Greater Number for every element. The Next Greater Number of a number x is the first greater number to its traversing-order next in the array, which means you could search circularly to find its next greater number. If it doesn't exist, output -1 for this number.
Example 1:
Input: [1,2,1] Output: [2,-1,2] Explanation: The first 1's next greater number is 2;
The number 2 can't find next greater number;
The second 1's next greater number needs to search circularly, which is also 2.
Note: The length of given array won't exceed 10000.
题目含义:给一个循环数组,返回一个等长的数组,数组中的每一个元素是:它后面的第一个大于它的元素(如果后面没有就循环一遍到最前面找,直到循环了一圈为止),如果不存在这样的数,就返回-1~
