Problem: Contains Duplicate

easy
15 min
Explore how to identify duplicates in an array of integers by implementing an efficient algorithm. This lesson helps you understand problem constraints and develop a solution that runs in linear time and uses additional space, preparing you for coding interview challenges.

Statement

For a given array of integers, nums, return TRUE if it contains duplicates. Otherwise, return FALSE.

Constraints:

  • 1≤1 \leq nums.length ≤103\leq 10^3

  • −109≤-10^9 \leq nums[i] ≤109\leq 10^9
