Problem
You are given an integer array nums and an integer k. Find the maximum subarray sum of all the subarrays of nums that meet the following conditions:
- The length of the subarray is
k, and
- All the elements of the subarray are distinct.
Return the maximum subarray sum of all the subarrays that meet the conditions. If no subarray meets the conditions, return 0.
A subarray is a contiguous non-empty sequence of elements within an array.
Examples
Constraints
- 1 <= k <= nums.length <= 10^5
- 1 <= nums[i] <= 10^5
