Find the Single Unique Number
Find the Single Unique Number
You are given an array of integers in which every element appears exactly twice except for one element that appears only once. Your task is to find and output this unique number.
The problem can be mathematically formulated as: given an array \( A = [a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n] \) where all elements except one satisfy \( a_i \oplus a_i = 0 \) (using the bitwise XOR operation), find the unique element \( x \) such that:
\[ \bigoplus_{i=1}^{n} a_i = x \]It is guaranteed that exactly one element appears only once and all other elements appear exactly twice.
inputFormat
The first line contains a single integer \( n \) representing the number of elements in the array. The second line contains \( n \) space-separated integers representing the elements of the array.
outputFormat
Output a single integer — the unique number in the array.
