SingleNumber

Single Number

Given an array of integers, every element appears twice except for one. Find that single one.

Note: Your algorithm should have a linear runtime complexity. Could you implement it without using extra memory?

Solution

使用异或位运算，相同的数字必然相互抵消，剩下只有一个数字的

Code

int singleNumber(int a[], int n)
{
	int result = 0;
	for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
		result ^= a[i];
	return result;
}
