  • Dynamic input for array size and elements
  • Uses stack to find next greater element for each array element
  • Outputs element -> next greater element
  • Fully commented for clarity

Input:
Array size: 5
Elements: 4 5 2 25 7

Output:
4 -> 5
5 -> 25
2 -> 25
25 -> -1
7 -> -1

How it works (step by step)

  1. Use a stack to keep track of elements we’ve seen so far.

  2. Traverse the array from right to left:

    • For each element, remove (pop) all elements in the stack smaller or equal to it.

    • If the stack is empty → no greater element → put -1.

    • If the stack is not empty → top of stack is the next greater element.

    • Push the current element to the stack.
