You are given an integer array nums. In one operation, you can replace any element in nums with any integer.
nums is considered continuous if both of the following conditions are fulfilled:
For example, nums = [4, 2, 5, 3] is continuous, but nums = [1, 2, 3, 5, 6] is not continuous.
Return the minimum number of operations to make nums continuous.
Input: nums = [1,2,3,5,6]
Output: 1
Explanation: One possible solution is to change the last element to 4.
The resulting array is [1,2,3,5,4], which is continuous.
Example 3
Input: nums = [1,10,100,1000]
Output: 3
Explanation: One possible solution is to:
- Change the second element to 2.
- Change the third element to 3.
- Change the fourth element to 4.
The resulting array is [1,2,3,4], which is continuous.
Constraints
1 <= nums.length <= 105
1 <= nums[i] <= 109
