duplicate in an array of n+1 integers gfg using vector code example
Example 1: find-array-duplicates
npm i find-array-duplicates
import duplicates from 'find-array-duplicates'
const names = [
{ 'age': 36, 'name': 'Bob' },
{ 'age': 40, 'name': 'Harry' },
{ 'age': 1, 'name': 'Bob' }
]
duplicates(names, 'name').single()
// => { 'age': 36, 'name': 'Bob' }
Example 2: Find the duplicate in an array of N integers.
// 287. Find the Duplicate Number
// Medium
// Given an array nums containing n + 1 integers where each integer is between 1 and n (inclusive), prove that at least one duplicate number must exist. Assume that there is only one duplicate number, find the duplicate one.
// Example 1:
// Input: [1,3,4,2,2]
// Output: 2
// Example 2:
// Input: [3,1,3,4,2]
// Output: 3
// Note:
// You must not modify the array (assume the array is read only).
// You must use only constant, O(1) extra space.
// Your runtime complexity should be less than O(n2).
// There is only one duplicate number in the array, but it could be repeated more than once.
