Flip Signs

L1 Easy Arrays & Hashing

Concept

Building a new array from an existing one is a two-step habit: create an empty result, then append one transformed value per source element.

Return a new array where every integer in nums is negated: positive values become negative and negative values become positive. 0 stays 0.

Examples

▸ nums = [1, -2, 3]

→ [-1, 2, -3]

▸ nums = [0, 5, -5]

→ [0, -5, 5]

▸ nums = []

→ []

Progressive Hints

Hint 1 · Nudge

Every value just trades its sign. Zero is its own opposite, so it stays put.

Hint 2 · Plan

Create an empty result array. For each element, append its negation. Return the result array.

Hint 3 · Approach

result = []. For each n: append -n to result. Return result.
