How to find all pairs of elements in Java array whose sum is equal to a given number?



To find all pairs of elements in Java array whose sum is equal to a given number −

  • Add each element in the array to all the remaining elements (except itself).
  • Verify if the sum is equal to the required number.
  • If true, print their indices.

Example

import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Scanner; public class sample {    public static void main(String args[]){       //Reading the array from the user       Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);       System.out.println("Enter the size of the array that is to be created: ");       int size = sc.nextInt();       int[] myArray = new int[size];       System.out.println("Enter the elements of the array: ");       for(int i=0; i<size; i++){          myArray[i] = sc.nextInt();       }       //Reading the number       System.out.println("Enter the number: ");       int num = sc.nextInt();       System.out.println("The array created is: "+Arrays.toString(myArray));       System.out.println("indices of the elements whose sum is: "+num);       for(int i=0; i<myArray.length; i++){          for (int j=i; j<myArray.length; j++){             if((myArray[i]+myArray[j])== num && i!=j){                System.out.println(i+", "+j);             }          }       }    } }

Output

Enter the size of the array that is to be created: 8 Enter the elements of the array: 15 12 4 16 9 8 24 0 Enter the number: 24 The array created is: [15, 12, 4, 16, 9, 8, 24, 0] indices of the elements whose sum is: 24 0, 4 3, 5 6, 7
