@Dave: I read the question correctly and for A = { 1 , 2} B = { 2 , 1}
the output is correct.
Maybe I didn't explain the steps correctly. This is the code:

for(int i = 0 ; i < arr1.Length ; i++)
            {
                arr1XOR ^= arr1[i];
                arr1XOR ^= i;

                arr1SUM += arr1[i];
                arr1MUL *= arr1[i];
            }

            for (int i = 0; i < arr2.Length; i++)
            {
                arr2XOR ^= arr2[i];
                arr2XOR ^= i;

                arr2SUM += arr2[i];
                arr2MUL *= arr2[i];
            }

            if(arr1XOR == arr2XOR && arr1SUM == arr2SUM && arr1MUL ==
arr2MUL)
            {
                //SAME VALUES - IDENTICAL ARRAYS
            }
            else
            {
                //NOT IDENTICAL
            }

Please correct me if I'm wrong.


Marius.
