can you please explain more in detail the logic for XORing the index.

@Nikhil : I considered the array to be a linked list. xoring the
indexes helps when you don't know how many elements you have.

@marius Why are you xorring the indexes along with nos.?any special reason?

@Dave: I read the question correctly and for A = { 1 , 2} B = { 2 , 1}
the output is correct.
Maybe I didn't explain the steps correctly. This is the code:
for(int i = 0 ; i<  arr1.Length ; i++)
            {
                arr1XOR ^= arr1[i];
                arr1XOR ^= i;
                arr1SUM += arr1[i];
                arr1MUL *= arr1[i];
            }
            for (int i = 0; i<  arr2.Length; i++)
            {
                arr2XOR ^= arr2[i];
                arr2XOR ^= i;
                arr2SUM += arr2[i];
                arr2MUL *= arr2[i];
            }
            if(arr1XOR == arr2XOR&&  arr1SUM == arr2SUM&&  arr1MUL ==
arr2MUL)
            {
                //SAME VALUES - IDENTICAL ARRAYS
            }
            else
            {
                //NOT IDENTICAL
            }
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Marius.

@UMarius: A = {1,2}, B = {2,1} fails your test. If you reread the
original problem, you see that the question is not whether the arrays
are identical (which is easily determined by simply comparing them
element-by-element in O(n)), but whether they contain the same values,
possibly in a different order.

What about this?
1. xor all elements of each array and their corresponding indexes&
sum all the elements of each array&  mul all elements of each array
2. if all results are the same then the arrays are identical
Nice to "meet" you all, I just joined and this is my first post :) ...
Given two arrays of numbers, find if each of the two arrays have the
same set of integers ? Suggest an algo which can run faster than
NlogN
without extra space?- Hide quoted text -
