text: Largest lexicographical string with at most K consecutive elements | Function to find the largest lexicographical string with given constraints . ; Vector containing frequency of each character . ; Assigning frequency to ; Empty string of string class type ; Loop to iterate over maximum priority first . ; If frequency is greater than or equal to k . ; Temporary variable to operate in - place of k . ; concatenating with the resultant string ans . ; Handling k case by adjusting with just smaller priority element . ; Condition to verify if index j does have frequency greater than 0 ; ; if no such element is found than string can not be processed further . ; If frequency is greater than 0 and less than k . ; Here we don 't need to fix K  consecutive element criteria. ; Otherwise check for next possible element . ; Driver code
