268. Missing Number
Difficulty: Easy
https://leetcode.com/problems/missing-number/
──────────────────────────────────────────────────
Given an array nums containing n distinct numbers in the range [0,
n], return the only number in the range that is missing from the
array.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [3,0,1]
Output: 2
Explanation:
n = 3 since there are 3 numbers, so all numbers are in the range
[0,3]. 2 is the missing number in the range since it does not appear
in nums.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [0,1]
Output: 2
Explanation:
n = 2 since there are 2 numbers, so all numbers are in the range
[0,2]. 2 is the missing number in the range since it does not appear
in nums.
Example 3:
Input: nums = [9,6,4,2,3,5,7,0,1]
Output: 8
Explanation:
n = 9 since there are 9 numbers, so all numbers are in the range
[0,9]. 8 is the missing number in the range since it does not appear
in nums.
Constraints:
• n == nums.length
• 1 <= n <= 10^4
• 0 <= nums[i] <= n
• All the numbers of nums are unique.
Follow up: Could you implement a solution using only O(1) extra space
complexity and O(n) runtime complexity?
