Description
Given an integer array nums, return an integer array counts where counts[i] is the number of smaller elements to the right of nums[i].
Example 1:
Input: nums = [5,2,6,1]
Output: [2,1,1,0]
Explanation:
To the right of 5 there are 2 smaller elements (2 and 1).
To the right of 2 there is only 1 smaller element (1).
To the right of 6 there is 1 smaller element (1).
To the right of 1 there is 0 smaller element.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [-1]
Output: [0]
Example 3:
Input: nums = [-1,-1]
Output: [0,0]
