❌Maximize Strength (Contest)

Maximize Strength (Contest) easy Time Limit: 2 sec Memory Limit: 128000 kB

Problem Statement :

You are given an array A of size N. You can apply the following operation at most M times:

  • Select two indices i, j such that (1 <= i < j <= N) and i % M == j % M

  • Swap Ai and Aj.

After performing all these operations, you have to choose any subarray of size M from this array. And the sum of all elements in this subarray is your strength. Find the maximum strength you can obtain.InputThe first line of the input contains two integers N and K. The second line of the input contains N space seperated integers. Constraints: 1 <= K <= N <= 105 1 <= Ai <= 109OutputPrint the maximum strength you can get.ExampleSample Input: 5 2 6 4 8 2 3 Sample Output: 12 Explaination: We simply take the subarray l = 2, r = 3. Sum = 12 This is the maximum possible.
