Check If N and Its Double Exist [Leetcode]

Leetcode

Given an array arr of integers, check if there exists two integers N and M such that N is the double of M ( i.e. N = 2 * M).

More formally check if there exists two indices i and j such that :

  • i != j
  • 0 <= i, j < arr.length
  • arr[i] == 2 * arr[j]

Example 1:

Input: arr = [10,2,5,3]
Output: true
Explanation: N = 10 is the double of M = 5,that is, 10 = 2 * 5.

Example 2:

Input: arr = [7,1,14,11]
Output: true
Explanation: N = 14 is the double of M = 7,that is, 14 = 2 * 7.

Example 3:

Input: arr = [3,1,7,11]
Output: false
Explanation: In this case does not exist N and M, such that N = 2 * M.

Constraints:

  • 2 <= arr.length <= 500
  • -10^3 <= arr[i] <= 10^3

    if (temp.includes(arr[i] + arr[i])) {
      console.log(arr[i]);
      return true;
    }
