// Trapping Rain Water in C
//
// PURPOSE
// Two boundary maxima determine trapped water above each bar.
//
// METHOD
// Process the side with the smaller boundary maximum, because the opposite side already
// provides a sufficiently high boundary. Accumulate that side's maximum minus its bar
// height.
//
// COMPLEXITY
// O(n) time, O(1) auxiliary space.
//
// CONTRACT
// Heights are nonnegative. Total volume must fit signed 32-bit.
// Public APIs infer array lengths except in C, which accepts pointer/length pairs. Vertex
// counts and matrix dimensions remain explicit. Arrays must contain signed 32-bit integers.
// Sorted order, correct tree topology, and caller-owned data-structure invariants are
// preconditions; checking them on every query would change query complexity.
// Scalar and shape checks are included. Value-range checks are included where needed to
// prevent invalid indexing or nontermination. Allocation sizes are capped at 4,000,000
// workspace entries. Arithmetic outside Python raises an error on 32-bit overflow; Python
// uses arbitrary precision. Native allocation failures propagate. In-place outputs may be
// partly updated after arithmetic failure. These are single-threaded, in-memory
// implementations.
//
// LANGUAGE DETAILS
// C99: checked calloc/free workspace, const input pointers, explicit size_t lengths. Errors
// return INT_MIN with errno=EINVAL, ERANGE, or ENOMEM. Check errno before using a result.
// Input/output arrays must not alias. No variable-length stack arrays.
//
// EXAMPLE
// Expected return: 6.
// Run: gcc -std=c99 -O2 example.c -o example && ./example
// Tests for this exact source artifact run before publication. The accompanying source
// archive includes unit cases, runtime results, and source hashes.

// Monotonic Deque Sliding Maximum in Java
//
// PURPOSE
// A monotonic deque returns every fixed-window maximum in linear time.
//
// METHOD
// Keep candidate indices in decreasing value order. Discard expired indices from the front
// and dominated candidates from the back; the front is the current maximum.
//
// COMPLEXITY
// O(n) time; O(n) allocated index-buffer space in this linear-buffer implementation, with at
// most k live candidates.
//
// CONTRACT
// 1 <= k <= n. output has n-k+1 entries. Writes maximum values and returns output length.
// Public APIs infer array lengths except in C, which accepts pointer/length pairs. Vertex
// counts and matrix dimensions remain explicit. Arrays must contain signed 32-bit integers.
// Sorted order, correct tree topology, and caller-owned data-structure invariants are
// preconditions; checking them on every query would change query complexity.
// Scalar and shape checks are included. Value-range checks are included where needed to
// prevent invalid indexing or nontermination. Allocation sizes are capped at 4,000,000
// workspace entries. Arithmetic outside Python raises an error on 32-bit overflow; Python
// uses arbitrary precision. Native allocation failures propagate. In-place outputs may be
// partly updated after arithmetic failure. These are single-threaded, in-memory
// implementations.
//
// LANGUAGE DETAILS
// Java 17+: primitive int arrays, Arrays.binarySearch for LIS, and Math exact arithmetic.
// Invalid input throws IllegalArgumentException; arithmetic overflow throws
// ArithmeticException.
//
// EXAMPLE
// Expected return: 6.
// Expected output after call: [3, 3, 5, 5, 6, 7].
// Run: javac AlgorithmExample.java && java AlgorithmExample
// Tests for this exact source artifact run before publication. The accompanying source
// archive includes unit cases, runtime results, and source hashes.
