[leetcode] problem 324 – wiggle sort ii

Given an unsorted array nums, reorder it such that nums[0] < nums[1] > nums[2] < nums[3]….

Example

No.1

Input: nums = [1, 5, 1, 1, 6, 4]

Output: One possible answer is [1, 4, 1, 5, 1, 6].

No.2

Input: nums = [1, 3, 2, 2, 3, 1]

Output: One possible answer is [2, 3, 1, 3, 1, 2].

Note

You may assume all input has valid answer.
