Description

Given an integer array nums and two integers left and right, return the number of contiguous non-empty subarrays such that the value of the maximum array element in that subarray is in the range [left, right].

The test cases are generated so that the answer will fit in a 32-bit integer.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [2,1,4,3], left = 2, right = 3
Output: 3
Explanation: There are three subarrays that meet the requirements: [2], [2, 1], [3].

Example 2:

Input: nums = [2,9,2,5,6], left = 2, right = 8
Output: 7
