PermCheck
Task description
A non-empty array A consisting of N integers is given.
A permutation is a sequence containing each element from 1 to N once, and only once.
For example, array A such that:
A[0] = 4
A[1] = 1
A[2] = 3
A[3] = 2
is a permutation, but array A such that:
A[0] = 4
A[1] = 1
A[2] = 3
is not a permutation, because value 2 is missing.
The goal is to check whether array A is a permutation.
Write a function:
def solution(A)
that, given an array A, returns 1 if array A is a permutation and 0 if it is not.
For example, given array A such that:
A[0] = 4
A[1] = 1
A[2] = 3
A[3] = 2
the function should return 1.
Given array A such that:
A[0] = 4
A[1] = 1
A[2] = 3
the function should return 0.
Assume that:
N is an integer within the range [1..100,000];
each element of array A is an integer within the range [1..1,000,000,000].
Complexity:
expected worst-case time complexity is O(N);
expected worst-case space complexity is O(N) (not counting the storage required for input arguments).
def solution(A):
m = max(A)
ls = len(set(A))
ll = len(A)
if ll != ls:
return 0
if ll == m:
return 1
else:
return 0
