https://leetcode.com/problems/single-number/

Given a non-empty 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?

Example 1:

Input: [2,2,1]
Output: 1

Example 2:

Input: [4,1,2,1,2]
Output: 4

Solutions

class Solution {
    public int singleNumber(int[] nums) {
        // a ^ b ^ c = a ^ c ^ b = b ^ a ^ c
        int x = 0;
        for (int a : nums) {
            x = x ^ a;
        }

        return x;
    }
}
