Build Array from Permutation

Easy

Given a zero-based permutation nums ( 0-indexed ), build an array ans of the same length where ans[i] = nums[nums[i]] for each 0 <= i < nums.length and produce it.

A zero-based permutation nums is an list of distinct integers from 0 to nums.length - 1 ( inclusive ).

Example 1

Input: nums = [0,2,1,5,3,4]

Output: [0,1,2,4,5,3]

Explanation: The array ans is built as follows:

ans = [nums[nums[0]], nums[nums[1]], nums[nums[2]], nums[nums[3]], nums[nums[4]], nums[nums[5]]]
= [nums[0], nums[2], nums[1], nums[5], nums[3], nums[4]]
= [0,1,2,4,5,3]
Example 2

Input: nums = [5,0,1,2,3,4]

Output: [4,5,0,1,2,3]

Explanation: The array ans is built as follows:

ans = [nums[nums[0]], nums[nums[1]], nums[nums[2]], nums[nums[3]], nums[nums[4]], nums[nums[5]]]
= [nums[5], nums[0], nums[1], nums[2], nums[3], nums[4]]
= [4,5,0,1,2,3]

Constraints

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 1000
  • 0 <= nums[i] < nums.length
  • The elements in nums are distinct .
