Problem: Single Number

Easy
15 min
Explore how to identify the element that appears only once in an array where every other element appears twice. Learn to apply bitwise manipulation techniques efficiently to solve this problem with linear runtime and constant space complexity.

Statement

Given an array of integers, where every element appears twice except for one, find the element that occurs only once.

Note: The solution must have linear runtime and constant space complexity.

Constraints:

  • 11 \leq nums.length 103\leq 10^3
  • 3×103-3 \times 10^3 \leq nums[i] 3×103\leq 3 \times 10^3
