子数组中小于或等于数字的元素数：MO的算法

给定大小为N ， Q ，L，R和X的查询的数组arr ，任务是在L到R表示的子数组中打印小于或等于X的元素数。

先决条件： MO的算法，Sqrt分解

例子：

Input: 
arr[] = {2, 3, 4, 5}
Q = {{0, 3, 5}, {0, 2, 2}}
Output:
 4
 1
Explanation:
Number of elements less than or equal to 5
in arr[0..3] is 4 (all elements)

Number of elements less than or equal to 2 
in arr[0..2] is 1 (only 2)

方法：
MO的算法的思想是对所有查询进行预处理，以便一个查询的结果可以在下一个查询中使用。
假设arr [0…n-1]为输入数组，而Q [0..m-1]为查询数组。

1. 对所有查询进行排序，将L值从0到√n– 1的查询放在一起，然后将所有从√n到2×√n– 1的查询放在一起，依此类推。块中的所有查询均按R值的升序排序。
2. 以每个查询都使用上一个查询中计算出的结果的方式，一个接一个地处理所有查询。
3. 我们将维护频率数组，该数组将对出现在[L，R]范围内的arr [i]的频率进行计数。
4. 例如： arr [] = [3、4、6、2、7、1]，L = 0，R = 4和X = 5

   Initially frequency array is initialized to 0 i.e freq[]=[0….0]
   Step 1– add arr[0] and increment its frequency as freq[arr[0]]++ i.e freq[3]++
   and freq[]=[0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0]

   Step 2– Add arr[1] and increment freq[arr[1]]++ i.e freq[4]++
   and freq[]=[0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]

   Step 3– Add arr[2] and increment freq[arr[2]]++ i.e freq[6]++
   and freq[]=[0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0]

   Step 4– Add arr[3] and increment freq[arr[3]]++ i.e freq[2]++
   and freq[]=[0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0]

   Step 5– Add arr[4] and increment freq[arr[4]]++ i.e freq[7]++
   and freq[]=[0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1]

   Step 6– Now we need to find the numbers of elements less than or equal to X(here X=5).

   Step 7– The answer is equal to $\sum_{i=0}^{X} freq[i]$

   To calculate the sum in step 7, we cannot do iteration because that would lead to O(N) time complexity per query so we will use sqrt decomposition technique to find the sum whose time complexity is O(√n) per query.

    // Answer the queries
    queryResults(arr, N, Q, M);
    return 0;
}

输出：

query[0, 2, 2] : 2
query[0, 3, 5] : 4
query[5, 7, 10] : 2

时间复杂度： O(Q×√N) 。
MO的算法需要O(Q×√N)时间，而sqrt分解技术需要O(Q×√N)时间来回答freq [0] +….freq [k]的总和，因此总时间复杂度为O( Q×√N+ Q×√N)是O(Q×√N)。
