count_num_arr_k_match_elem.c (1394B)


// 3405. Count the Number of Arrays with K Matching Adjacent Elements
#include "leetcode.h"

/*
 * you are given three integers 'n', 'm', and 'k'. a good array 'arr' of size
 * 'n' is defined as follows: each element in 'arr' is in inclusive range '[1,
 * m]', and exactly 'k' indices 'i' where '1 <= i < n' satisfy the condition
 * 'arr[i - 1] == arr[i]'. return the number of good arrays that can be formed.
 * since the answer may be very large, return it modulo 10^9+7.
