Anónimo · Answer

The worst answer in this case is an algorithm, the interviewer clearly did not ask for that. An important question to ask is whether they want the Position of the doubled integer or only its value. Possible solutions: sort (quick sort, radix-sort/K-sort), search, counting, Polynom, a[0]+a[1]+...a[101] - 0+1+2+99+100 = doubled integer.
