Squares of a Sorted Array

Squares of a Sorted Array ( Easy) Link : https://leetcode.com/problems/squares-of-a-sorted-array/ Given an integer array nums sorted in non-decreasing order, return an array of the squares of each number sorted in non-decreasing order.   Example 1: Input: nums = [-4,-1,0,3,10] Output: [0,1,9,16,100] Explanation: After squaring, the array becomes [16,1,0,9,100]. After sorting, it becomes [0,1,9,16,100]. Example 2: Input: nums = [-7,-3,2,3,11] Output: [4,9,9,49,121]   Constraints: 1 <= nums.length <= 104 -104 <= nums[i] <= 104 nums is sorted in non-decreasing order.   Follow up: Squaring each element and sorting the new array is very trivial, could you find an O(n) solution using a different approach? Solution (C++) : vector < int > sortedSquares ( vector < int >& nums) { int n = nums.size(); int start= 0 ; int end=n -1 ; vector < int > res(n); int pos = n -1 ; while (start <=
