In an array A, every integer from O to n is present with the exception of one. We are unable to access a full integer in A in this case with a single operation. The sole operation we can use to access the elements of A, which are represented in binary, is "get the jth bit of A[i]," which has a constant time cost. To discover the missing integer, write some code. Do you have O(n) time?
