Smallest Divisible Digit Product II — linear scan

Keep a running answer while you walk the array once. Built for LeetCode 3348. Smallest Divisible Digit Product II.

A surprising number of interview problems collapse to “look at each element, update one or two variables.” Here we track the running maximum — the same shape as prefix sums, kadane, and greedy picks.

Algorithm

  1. Seed best with the first element.
  2. For each later x, set best = max(best, x).
  3. Return best.
