Maximize Greatness of an Array

You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums.

You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums. You are allowed to permute nums into a new array perm of your choosing.

We define the greatness of nums be the number of indices 0 <= i < nums.length for which perm[i] > nums[i].

Return the maximum possible greatness you can achieve after permuting nums.

Maximize Greatness of an Array diagram

Example 1

Input: nums = [1,3,5,2,1,3,1]

Output: 4

Explanation: One of the optimal rearrangements is perm = [2,5,1,3,3,1,1]. At indices = 0, 1, 3, and 4, perm[i] > nums[i]. Hence, we return 4.

Example 2

Input: nums = [1,2,3,4]

Output: 3

Explanation: We can prove the optimal perm is [2,3,4,1]. At indices = 0, 1, and 2, perm[i] > nums[i]. Hence, we return 3.

Constraints

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 10^5
  • 0 <= nums[i] <= 10^9
