LeetCode 136 Single Number
Problem:
Given an array of integers, every element appears twice except for one. Find that single one.
Your algorithm should have a linear runtime complexity. Could you implement it without using extra memory?
Summary:
整型数组中出了一个元素,其余元素均出现两次。在线性复杂度且不占用多余空间的情况下,找到这个特殊元素。
Solution:
1、最简单的方法,n*n循环,但复杂度O(n2)
2、给数组排序,前后两两元素比较。
3、XOR运算:偶数个相同的整型数XOR运算后,结果为0。0与任何数异或均得原数。
由于数组中除目标数之外其余元素均出现两次,将数组中所有元素异或,最终所得结果即为目标数。
