Smallest Missing Positive Integer
Smallest Missing Positive Integer
You are given an array \(A\) of \(N\) integers. Your task is to find the smallest positive integer that does not appear in \(A\). In other words, find the minimum integer \(x\) (with \(x \ge 1\)) such that \(x \notin A\).
Note: The solution should work efficiently even for large input sizes. Use appropriate data structures where necessary.
inputFormat
The input consists of two lines:
- The first line contains an integer \(N\), which represents the number of elements in the array \(A\).
- The second line contains \(N\) space-separated integers representing the elements of \(A\).
outputFormat
Output a single integer representing the smallest missing positive integer from the array \(A\).
