Two odd occurring elements in an array where all other occur even times

Given an array where all elements appear even number of times except two, print the two odd occurring elements. It may be assumed that the size of array is at-least two.

Examples:

Input : arr[] = {2, 3, 8, 4, 4, 3, 7, 8}
Output : 2 7

Input : arr[] = {15, 10, 10, 50 7, 5, 5, 50, 50, 50, 50, 50}
Output : 7 15

Simple solution :

Approach :

A simple solution is to use two nested loops. The outer loop traverses through all elements. The inner loop counts occurrences of the current element. We print the elements whose counts of occurrences are odd.

Below is the code of the given approach :

C++




// CPP code to find two odd occurring elements
// in an array where all other elements appear
// even number of times.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
void printOdds(int arr[], int n)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        int count = 0;
        for (int j = 0; j < n; j++) {
            if (arr[i] == arr[j]) {
                count += 1;
            }
        }
        if (count % 2 != 0) {
            cout << arr[i]
                 << " "; // Print the elements that occur
                         // odd number of times in an array
        }
    }
    cout << endl;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
    // function call
    printOdds(arr, n);
    return 0;

Complexity Analysis:

  • Time complexity : O(n^2)
  • Auxiliary space : O(n)

A better solution is to use hashing. Time complexity of this solution is O(n) but it requires extra space.

We can construct a frequency hashmap, then iterate over all of its key – value pairs, and print all keys whose values (frequency) are odd.

Implementation:

C++




// CPP code to find two odd occurring elements
// in an array where all other elements appear
// even number of times.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
 
void printOdds(int arr[], int n)
{
    //declaring an unordered map
    unordered_map<int, int> freq;
    //building the frequency table
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        freq[arr[i]]++;
     
    //iterating over the map
    for (auto& it: freq) {
        //if the frequency is odd
        //print the element
        if (it.second % 2)
            cout << it.first << " ";
    }
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5 };

Complexity Analysis:

  • Auxiliary Space : O(1)

Another Efficient Solution (Using binary search) : Sort the array for binary search . Then we can find frequency of all array elements using binary search function . Then we can check if frequency of array element is odd or not , If frequency is odd , then print that element .

Below is the implementation of above approach:

// odd times in the array
void printOdds(int arr[], int n)
   int count = 0;
   sort(arr,arr+n);//sort array for binary search
    
   for(int i = 0 ; i < n ;i++)
   {
     //index of first and last occ of arr[i]
     int first_index = lower_bound(arr,arr+n,arr[i])- arr;

     i = last_index; // assign i to last_index to avoid printing
                     // same element multiple time
      
     int fre = last_index-first_index+1;//finding frequency
     //( occurences of arr[i] in the array )
