1187. Make Array Strictly Increasing

LeetCodeArrayBinary SearchDynamic ProgrammingSortingOpen on judge ↗

Given two integer arrays arr1 and arr2, return the minimum number of operations (possibly zero) needed to make arr1 strictly increasing. In one operation, you can choose two indices 0 <= i < arr1.length and 0 <= j < arr2.length and do the assignment arr1[i] = arr2[j]. If there is no way to make arr1 strictly increasing, return -1. Example 1: Input: arr1 = [1,5,3,6,7], arr2 = [1,3,2,4] Output
