[Codility] Lesson4 - MissingInteger


Task discription


This is a demo task.
Write a function:
int solution(vector &A);
that, given an array A of N integers, returns the smallest positive integer (greater than 0) that does not occur in A.
For example, given A = [1, 3, 6, 4, 1, 2], the function should return 5.
Given A = [1, 2, 3], the function should return 4.
Given A = [−1, −3], the function should return 1.
Write an efficient algorithm for the following assumptions:
  • N is an integer within the range [1..100,000];
  • each element of array A is an integer within the range [−1,000,000..1,000,000].
  • Source Code

    #include <iostream>
    #include <algorithm>
    #include <vector>
    
    using namespace std;
    
    int solution(vector<int> &A) {
        int ans = 1;
        
        // 정렬 & 중복제거
        sort(A.begin(), A.end());
        A.erase(unique(A.begin(), A.end()), A.end());
        
        for(int i=0;i<A.size();i++){
            if(ans == A[i])
                ans++;
            
        }
        return ans;
    }
