Problem
Given an array of integers nums.
A pair (i,j) is called good if nums[i] == nums[j] and i < j.
Return the number of good pairs.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [1,2,3,1,1,3]
Output: 4
Explanation: There are 4 good pairs (0,3), (0,4), (3,4), (2,5) 0-indexed.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [1,1,1,1]
Output: 6
Explanation: Each pair in the array are good.
Example 3:
Input: nums = [1,2,3]
Output: 0
Constraints:
1 <= nums.length <= 100 1 <= nums[i] <= 100
Pre analysis
We can use hashmap;
Another Solution
Counting in place
var numIdenticalPairs = function(nums) {
var index = {};
let count = 0;
for(let i=0 ;i<nums.length; i++){
index[nums[i]] = index[nums[i]] || [];
index[nums[i]].push(i);
if(index[nums[i]]!==1){
count+=index[nums[i]].length-1
}
}
return count;
};
