2831\. Find the Longest Equal Subarray

Medium

You are given a **0-indexed** integer array `nums` and an integer `k`.

A subarray is called **equal** if all of its elements are equal. Note that the empty subarray is an **equal** subarray.

Return _the length of the **longest** possible equal subarray after deleting **at most**_ `k` _elements from_ `nums`.

A **subarray** is a contiguous, possibly empty sequence of elements within an array.

**Example 1:**

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

**Output:** 3

**Explanation:** It's optimal to delete the elements at index 2 and index 4. 

After deleting them, nums becomes equal to [1, 3, 3, 3]. The longest equal subarray starts at i = 1 and ends at j = 3 with length equal to 3. 

It can be proven that no longer equal subarrays can be created.

**Example 2:**

**Input:** nums = [1,1,2,2,1,1], k = 2

**Output:** 4

**Explanation:** It's optimal to delete the elements at index 2 and index 3.

After deleting them, nums becomes equal to [1, 1, 1, 1]. The array itself is an equal subarray, so the answer is 4. 

It can be proven that no longer equal subarrays can be created.

**Constraints:**

*   1 <= nums.length <= 105
*   `1 <= nums[i] <= nums.length`
*   `0 <= k <= nums.length`
