#K58512. Minimum Swaps to Sort an Array
Minimum Swaps to Sort an Array
Minimum Swaps to Sort an Array
You are given an array of n unique integers. Your task is to find the minimum number of swap operations required to sort the array in ascending order, such that the element at index i becomes i+1 for all i (0-indexed).
A swap operation exchanges the positions of two elements in the array. To solve this problem, you may use a strategy where you map the values to their indices and swap elements that are not in their correct positions until the array is fully sorted.
The following is an example:
Input: 5 4 3 1 2 5</p>Output: 3
In the example, 3 swaps are required to sort the array.
inputFormat
The input is given via stdin with the following structure:
- The first line contains an integer n, representing the number of elements in the array.
- The second line contains n space-separated unique integers.
outputFormat
The output should be printed to stdout as a single integer representing the minimum number of swaps required to sort the array.
