Hi,
 If the array A is a list of consecutive N natural numbers,
then missing number,n = Sum of N natural numbers + Sum of the numbers in Array A.

Hello I need to know the best way to get a missing element
from an array.

i have an array @a of size containing values 1 to 101 with one value missing.

eg: @a=qw( 1 2 3 4 5 6 8 9 10 .... 101);

(the array is not sorted and its only to make it
easier to understand)

now i need to find out the missing value i.e 7 .

if i run a loop then it needs to run  n x n number of
times.

kindly suggest.

Thanks

Jabir
