Problem Statement Given an unsorted array arr[] containing both positive and negative integers, move all negative elements to the end of the array without changing the order of: Positive elements Negative elements Important: Perform the operation in-place (do not return a new array). Example 1 Input: arr[] = [1, -1, 3, 2, -7, -5, 11, 6] Output: [1, 3, 2, 11, 6, -1, -7, -5] Explanation: Positive numbers remain in same order → 1, 3, 2, 11, 6 Negative numbers remain in same order → -1, -7, -5 All negatives are moved to the end Example 2 Input: arr[] = [-5, 7, -3, -4, 9, 10, -1, 11] Output: [7, 9, 10, 11, -5, -3, -4, -1] Constraints 1 ≤ arr.size ≤ 10^6 -10^9 ≤ arr[i] ≤ 10^9 Expected Time Complexity: O(n) Expected Auxiliary Space: O(n) Approach – Stable Separation Using Extra Space Since we must: Maintain order of positives Maintain order of negatives We cannot simply swap randomly.
