Given a non-empty array of integers nums, every element appears twice except for one. Find that single one.

You must implement a solution with a linear runtime complexity and use only constant extra space.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [2,2,1]
Output: 1

Example 2:

Input: nums = [4,1,2,1,2]
Output: 4

Example 3:

Input: nums = [1]
Output: 1

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 3 * 104
  • -3 * 104 <= nums[i] <= 3 * 104
  • Each element in the array appears twice except for one element which appears only once.




 class Solution:
    def singleNumber(self, nums: List[int]) -> int:
        hashset = set()

        for num in nums:
            if num in hashset:
                hashset.remove(num)
            else:
                hashset.add(num)
        return list(hashset)[0]
