Find elements of original array from doubled array

  • Given an array arr[] of 2*N integers such that it consists of all elements along with the twice values of another array, say A[], the task is to find the array A[].

Examples:

Input: arr[] = {4, 1, 18, 2, 9, 8}
Output: 1 4 9
Explanation:
After taking double values of 1, 4, and 9 then adding them to the original array, All elements of the given array arr[] are obtained 

Input: arr[] = {4, 1, 2, 2, 8, 2, 4, 4}
Output: 1 2 2 4

Approach: The given problem can be solved by counting the frequency of array elements in the HashMap array elements and observation can be made that, the smallest element in the array will always be a part of the original array, therefore it can be included in the result list res[]. The element with a double value of the smallest element will be the duplicate element that is not part of the original array so its frequency can be reduced from the map. Below steps can be followed to solve the problem: 

  • Sort the given array arr[] in ascending order
  • Iterate through the array elements and store the numbers and their frequencies in a hashmap
  • Create a result list res[] to store the elements present in the original list
  • Add the first element in the result list and reduce the frequency of the element which has a double value of the first element.
  • Traverse the array and check for the frequency of every element in the map:
    • If the frequency is greater than 0, then add the element in the result list and decrement the frequency.
    • Otherwise, skip the element and move ahead because it is a double value and not a part of the original array.
  • After completing the above steps, print the elements in the list res[].

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to find the original array
// from the doubled array
vector<int> findOriginal(vector<int>& arr)
{
 
    // Stores the numbers and
    // their frequency
    map<int, int> numFreq;
 
    // Add number with their frequencies
    // in the hashmap
    for (int i = 0; i < arr.size(); i++) {
        numFreq[arr[i]]++;
    }
 
    // Sort the array
    sort(arr.begin(), arr.end());
 
    // Initialize an arraylist
    vector<int> res;
 
    for (int i = 0; i < arr.size(); i++) {
 
        // Get the frequency of the number
        int freq = numFreq[arr[i]];
        if (freq > 0) {
 
            // Element is of original array
            res.push_back(arr[i]);
 
            // Decrement the frequency of
            // the number
            numFreq[arr[i]]--;
 
            int twice = 2 * arr[i];
 
            // Decrement the frequency of
            // the number having double value
            numFreq[twice]--;
        }
    }
 
    // Return the resultant string
    return res;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
 
    vector<int> arr = { 4, 1, 2, 2, 2, 4, 8, 4 };
    vector<int> res = findOriginal(arr);
 
    // Print the result list
    for (int i = 0; i < res.size(); i++) {
        cout << res[i] << " ";
    }
 
    return 0;
}
