Maximum length of Strictly Increasing Sub-array after removing at most one element

Last Updated : 09 Dec, 2022

Given an array arr[], the task is to remove at most one element and calculate the maximum length of strictly increasing subarray.

Examples:

Input: arr[] = {1, 2, 5, 3, 4}
Output: 4
After deleting 5, the resulting array will be {1, 2, 3, 4}
and the maximum length of its strictly increasing subarray is 4.

Input: arr[] = {1, 2}
Output: 2
The complete array is already strictly increasing.

Approach:

Create two arrays pre[] and pos[] of size N.
Iterate over the input array arr[] from (0, N) to find out the contribution of the current element arr[i] in the array till now [0, i) and update the pre[] array if it contributes to the strictly increasing subarray.
Iterate over the input array arr[] from [N – 2, 0] to find out the contribution of the current element arr[j] in the array till now (N, j) and update the pos[] array if arr[j] contributes in the longest increasing subarray.
Calculate the maximum length of the strictly increasing subarray without removing any element.
Iterate over the array pre[] and pos[] to find out the contribution of the current element by excluding that element.
Maintain a variable ans to find the maximum found till now.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ implementation of the approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to return the maximum length of strictly
// increasing subarray after removing atmost one element
int maxIncSubarr(int a[], int n)
{
    // Create two arrays pre and pos
    int pre[n] = { 0 };
    int pos[n] = { 0 };
    pre[0] = 1;
    pos[n - 1] = 1;
    int l = 0;
 
    // Find out the contribution of the current element in
    // array[0, i] and update pre[i]
    for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
        if (a[i] > a[i - 1])
            pre[i] = pre[i - 1] + 1;
        else
            pre[i] = 1;
    }
 
    // Find out the contribution of the current element in
    // array[N - 1, i] and update pos[i]
    l = 1;
    for (int i = n - 2; i >= 0; i--) {
        if (a[i] < a[i + 1])
            pos[i] = pos[i + 1] + 1;
        else
            pos[i] = 1;
    }
 
    // Calculate the maximum length of the strictly
    // increasing subarray without removing any element
    int ans = 0;
    l = 1;
    for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
        if (a[i] > a[i - 1])
            l++;
        else
            l = 1;
        ans = max(ans, l);
    }
 
    // Calculate the maximum length of the strictly
    // increasing subarray after removing the current
    // element
    for (int i = 1; i <= n - 2; i++)
        if (a[i - 1] < a[i + 1])
            ans = max(pre[i - 1] + pos[i + 1], ans);
 
    return ans;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 1, 2 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(int);
    cout << maxIncSubarr(arr, n);
    return 0;
}

C

// C implementation of the approach
#include <stdio.h>
 
// Find maximum between two numbers.
int max(int num1, int num2)
{
    return (num1 > num2) ? num1 : num2;
}
 
// Function to return the maximum length of strictly
// increasing subarray after removing atmost one element
int maxIncSubarr(int a[], int n)
{
    // Create two arrays pre and pos
    int pre[n];
    int pos[n];
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        pre[i] = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        pos[i] = 0;
 
    pre[0] = 1;
    pos[n - 1] = 1;
    int l = 0;
 
    // Find out the contribution of the current element in
    // array[0, i] and update pre[i]
    for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
        if (a[i] > a[i - 1])
            pre[i] = pre[i - 1] + 1;
        else
            pre[i] = 1;
    }

    // array[N - 1, i] and update pos[i]
    l = 1;
    for (int i = n - 2; i >= 0; i--) {
        if (a[i] < a[i + 1])
            pos[i] = pos[i + 1] + 1;
        else
            pos[i] = 1;
    }
 
    // Calculate the maximum length of the strictly
    // increasing subarray without removing any element
    int ans = 0;
    l = 1;
    for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {

            l++;
        else
            l = 1;
        ans = max(ans, l);
    }
 
    // Calculate the maximum length of the strictly

    // element
    for (int i = 1; i <= n - 2; i++)
        if (a[i - 1] < a[i + 1])
