LeetCode #Single Number#

解法一:

    人类需要O(n)去解决问题，于是普罗米修斯不管三七二十一就偷来了Hash...
    Python里面内置的dic好用到不行．这里可以利用Hash把时间复杂度降到O(n)，但是这种解法不满足对内存的要求．．．

array = [1,2,3,4,5,4,3,2,1]

s = Solution()
print s.singleNumber(array)

解法二：

首先最简单的思路不过就是排序，一旦排序起来，只要有数值的，就最好不要用比较排序，基于比较排序最快也就O(n * log(n) )，线性时间排序O(n)不
能再sexy...　但是这种方法不满足对内存的要求(Don't use extra memory).

解法三:

这种解法是我看到 @Powerxing　的blog时候看到的．利用．．．异或
