Contains Duplicate

Given an integer array nums, return true if any value appears at least twice in the array, and return false if every element is distinct.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,1]
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,4]
Output: false

Example 3:

Input: nums = [1,1,1,3,3,4,3,2,4,2]
Output: true

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 105
  • -109 <= nums[i] <= 109

SOLUTION:

import heapq class Solution: def containsDuplicate(self, nums: List[int]) -> bool: n = len(nums) heapq.heapify(nums) curr = heapq.heappop(nums) for _ in range(n - 1): currnew = heapq.heappop(nums) if curr == currnew: return True curr = currnew return False
