Given an array nums
containing n
distinct numbers in the range [0, n]
, return the only number in the range that is missing from the array.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [3,0,1] Output: 2 Explanation: n = 3 since there are 3 numbers, so all numbers are in the range [0,3]. 2 is the missing number in the range since it does not appear in nums.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [0,1] Output: 2 Explanation: n = 2 since there are 2 numbers, so all numbers are in the range [0,2]. 2 is the missing number in the range since it does not appear in nums.
Example 3:
Input: nums = [9,6,4,2,3,5,7,0,1] Output: 8 Explanation: n = 9 since there are 9 numbers, so all numbers are in the range [0,9]. 8 is the missing number in the range since it does not appear in nums.
Constraints:
n == nums.length
1 <= n <= 104
0 <= nums[i] <= n
- All the numbers of
nums
are unique.

return i
nums = [9, 6, 4, 2, 3, 5, 7, 0, 1]
