Original problem : Contains Duplicate II https://leetcode.com/problems/contains-duplicate-ii

Given an array of integers and an integer k, find out whether there are two distinct indices i and j in the array such that nums[i] = nums[j] and the absolute difference between i and j is at most k.

Example 1 :

Input: nums = [1,2,3,1], k = 3
Output: true

Example 2 :

Input: nums = [1,0,1,1], k = 1
Output: true

Example 3 :

Input: nums = [1,2,3,1,2,3], k = 2
Output: false

Notes

Time restriction is soo tight. I have lookup which data structures in .Net are faster than list.
