Top K Frequent Elements

You are tasked with finding the k most frequent elements in a given list of integers. If there is a tie, return the larger numbers first. You will read a list of integers and a value k and output the k most frequent numbers. Input format: - The first line contains two integers: n (1 <= n <= 1000) and k (1 <= k <= n). - The second line contains n integers, each between 1 and 100000. Output format: - Output k distinct integers in a single line, sorted in decreasing order of frequency, and then by value. Example: Input: 6 2 1 2 2 3 3 1 Output: 2 1
