LeetCode in Kotlin

692. Top K Frequent Words

Medium

Given an array of strings words and an integer k, return the k most frequent strings.

Return the answer sorted by the frequency from highest to lowest. Sort the words with the same frequency by their lexicographical order.

Example 1:

Input: words = [“i”,”love”,”leetcode”,”i”,”love”,”coding”], k = 2

Output: [“i”,”love”]

Explanation: “i” and “love” are the two most frequent words. Note that “i” comes before “love” due to a lower alphabetical order.

Example 2:

Input: words = [“the”,”day”,”is”,”sunny”,”the”,”the”,”the”,”sunny”,”is”,”is”], k = 4

Output: [“the”,”is”,”sunny”,”day”]

Explanation: “the”, “is”, “sunny” and “day” are the four most frequent words, with the number of occurrence being 4, 3, 2 and 1 respectively.

Constraints:

Follow-up: Could you solve it in O(n log(k)) time and O(n) extra space?
