Leetcode 1985. Find the Kth Largest Integer in the Array
Given an array of non‑negative integers encoded as decimal strings (no leading zeros) and an integer k, return the k-th largest numeric value treating duplicates as distinct. The core challenge is comparing potentially long numeric strings efficiently (compare by length then lexicographically) and selecting the k-th largest (via sorting, heap, or selection).
