Majority Element
Given an array of size n
, find the majority element. The majority element is the element that appears more than floor(n/2)
times.
You may assume that the array is non-empty and the majority element always exist in the array.
Example :
Input : [2, 1, 2]
Return : 2 which occurs 2 times which is greater than 3/2.
public class Solution {
public int majorityElement(int[] A) {
int maj_index = 0, count = 1;
int i;
for (i = 1; i < A.length; i++) {
if (A[maj_index] == A[i])
count++;
else
count--;
if (count == 0) {
maj_index = i;
count = 1;
}
}
return A[maj_index];
}
}
