Leetcode Problem 954. Array of Doubled Pairs

954. Array of Doubled Pairs

Leetcode Solutions

Greedy Approach with Sorting and Counting

  1. Sort the array arr by absolute values.
  2. Initialize a hashmap count to store the frequency of each element in arr.
  3. Iterate through the sorted array: a. For each element x, check if count[x] is greater than 0. b. If so, check if count[2*x] is also greater than 0. c. If both counts are positive, decrement count[x] and count[2*x] by 1. d. If count[2*x] is not positive, return false as we cannot pair x with 2*x.
  4. If we successfully iterate through the array without returning false, return true.
