    1881 - Maximum Value after Insertion\.

    Medium

    You are given a very large integer n, represented as a string, and an integer digit x. The digits in n and the digit x are in the inclusive range [1, 9], and n may represent a negative number.

    You want to maximize n 's numerical value by inserting x anywhere in the decimal representation of n. You cannot insert x to the left of the negative sign.

    • For example, if n = 73 and x = 6, it would be best to insert it between 7 and 3, making n = 763.

    • If n = -55 and x = 2, it would be best to insert it before the first 5, making n = -255.

    Return a string representing the maximum value of n_ after the insertion_.

    Example 1:

    Input: n = "99", x = 9

    Output: "999"

    Explanation: The result is the same regardless of where you insert 9.

    Example 2:

    Input: n = "-13", x = 2

    Output: "-123"

    Explanation: You can make n one of {-213, -123, -132}, and the largest of those three is -123.

    Constraints:

    • <code>1 <= n.length <= 10<sup>5</sup></code>

    • 1 &lt;= x &lt;= 9

    • The digits in n are in the range [1, 9].

    • n is a valid representation of an integer.

    • In the case of a negative n, it will begin with '-'.
