Problem: Majority Element

Medium
30 min
Explore how to identify the majority element in an array by applying pattern recognition and algorithmic efficiency. This lesson helps you develop a solution that runs in linear time and uses minimal space, strengthening your problem-solving skills for coding interviews.

Statement

Given an array, nums, having nn integers, return the majority element. An element will be considered a majority element if it occurs more than n/2⌊n / 2⌋ times in the array.

Note: It is safe to assume that the majority element always exists in the array.

Constraints

  • n==n == nums.length
  • 1n31031\leq n\leq 3 * 10^3
  • 104−10^4 \leq nums[i] 104\leq10^4
