Given a non-empty array of integers, return the k most frequent elements.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,1,1,2,2,3], k = 2
Output: [1,2]

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1], k = 1
Output: [1]

Note:

  • You may assume k is always valid, 1 ≤ k ≤ number of unique elements.
  • Your algorithm’s time complexity must be better than O(n log n), where n is the array’s size.
  • It’s guaranteed that the answer is unique, in other words, the set of the top k frequent elements is unique.
  • You can return the answer in any order.
