Removing Minimum and Maximum From Array | LEETCODE 2091 | Solve In Seconds | Amazon Most Asked

This video solves LeetCode 2091 Removing Minimum and Maximum From Array with a greedy O(n) approach. It finds the min and max indices in one pass, then compares three deletion patterns — front only, back only, and both ends — returning the minimum count. The walkthrough covers the worked example, edge cases (n=1, adjacent indices, extremes at the ends), complexity O(n)/O(1), and the full Java, Python, C++ and C code, framed for Amazon, Google and Meta interviews.

Why this approach beats the others

  • Exact primary keyword "Removing Minimum and Maximum From Array" leads the title and the description snippet, while blogs/video competitors bury it.
  • O(n) greedy explained visually (three deletion cases) beats the common O(n log n) sorting explanations.
  • Black cinematic, face-forward thumbnail with LeetCode + Amazon/Google logos and two distinct taglines ("CRACK INTERVIEW", "JUST WATCH IT") out-clicks plain-code thumbnails.
  • Full Java/Python/C++/C code in one GitHub file covers every language searchers type.
  • Chapters, 6 FAQ, and US-EST scheduling maximize YouTube + Google + AI-search indexing.

Notes for US interview prep

  • Metadata in American English spelling (behavior, color, optimize, favorite).
  • Upload accurate English .srt captions (the recording cam.srt) — do NOT rely on auto-captions; this unlocks Google video carousels and AI-search citations.
  • Schedule publish Tue/Wed 2-4 PM EST (Sun 10 AM EST also strong) via YouTube Schedule; 3 PM EST = 1:30 AM IST next day.
  • Build playlists: "Amazon LeetCode Interview", "Google LeetCode", "Meta LeetCode" for session autoplay.
  • Long-form hashtags kept to 3 (trim spam); push Shorts clipping the Solve-in-Seconds hook (vertical 9:16, captions) Fri 4-7 PM EST.
  • Confirm US% rising in YouTube Studio -> Audience -> Geography.
