sorry, i made a slight coding mistake in my last post (invisible 7th array) , but the logic remains the same...corrected sample output:
arrays: 6 elements in each array: 20 range: 1 to 5 array #1: [3, 4, 3, 4, 5, 3, 2, 2, 1, 4, 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 1, 3, 2, 4, 4] array #2: [1, 4, 5, 2, 1, 5, 1, 4, 3, 1, 3, 2, 5, 4, 4, 1, 3, 4, 5, 3] array #3: [4, 3, 4, 3, 3, 5, 2, 5, 4, 5, 2, 2, 1, 5, 5, 4, 4, 1, 2, 2] array #4: [4, 2, 5, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 5, 5, 1, 3, 4, 1, 5, 4, 3, 5, 2, 5] array #5: [3, 4, 2, 5, 1, 4, 1, 5, 5, 5, 3, 5, 2, 1, 4, 1, 1, 5, 2, 5] array #6: [5, 5, 2, 4, 3, 5, 5, 4, 1, 4, 2, 3, 1, 1, 5, 2, 5, 1, 3, 4] intersection: [3, 4, 5, 2, 1] On Oct 28, 3:09 am, kumar raja <rajkumar.cs...@gmail.com> wrote: > How is it possible to create a hash map using elements as keys and their > counts as values .If we give some key the value is automatically computed by > hash function .If u are given an element/key its index/value is calculated > by hash function.am i corrct?? > > On 27 October 2011 22:36, Nitin Garg <nitin.garg.i...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > The hashing solution is similar to the 1st answer > > here<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2932979/find-a-common-element-with...> > > > A sorting solution will take O(k.n.logn) time > > > On Fri, Oct 28, 2011 at 9:51 AM, Anup Ghatage <ghat...@gmail.com> wrote: > > >> Don, > >> As you said, the intersection set, won't really be in sorted order as it > >> depends on the elements of the second array, which are unsorted.
