  1. '''
  2. This problem was asked by Google.
  3. Given an array of integers and a number k, where 1 <= k <= length of the array, compute the maximum values of each subarray of length k.
  4. For example, given array = [10, 5, 2, 7, 8, 7] and k = 3, we should get: [10, 7, 8, 8], since:
  5. 10 = max(10, 5, 2)
  6. 7 = max(5, 2, 7)
  7. 8 = max(2, 7, 8)
  8. 8 = max(7, 8, 7)
  9. Do this in O(n) time and O(k) space.
