Given an array of n integers. The problem is to find maximum length of the subsequence with difference between adjacent elements in the subsequence as either 0 or 1. Time Complexity of O(n) is required.
Examples:
Input : arr[] = {2, 5, 6, 3, 7, 6, 5, 8} Output : 5 The subsequence is {5, 6, 7, 6, 5}. Input : arr[] = {-2, -1, 5, -1, 4, 0, 3} Output : 4 The subsequence is {-2, -1, -1, 0}.
Method 1: Previously an approach having time complexity of O(n2) have been discussed in this post.
Method 2 (Efficient Approach): The idea is to create a hash map having tuples in the form (ele, len), where len denotes the length of the longest subsequence ending with the element ele. Now, for each element arr[i] we can find the length of the values arr[i]-1, arr[i] and arr[i]+1 in the hash table and consider the maximum among them. Let this maximum value be max. Now, the length of longest subsequence ending with arr[i] would be max+1. Update this length along with the element arr[i] in the hash table. Finally, the element having the maximum length in the hash table gives the maximum length subsequence.

Output:
Maximum length subsequence = 5
Time Complexity: O(n)
Auxiliary Space: O(n)
