Majority Element Leetcode Solution

Hello codes, Today I am going to solve another Leetcode problem ” Majority Element Leetcode Solution “. The solution will be in java.

Problem statement:

Given an array nums of size n, return the majority element.

The majority element is the element that appears more than ⌊n / 2⌋ times. You may assume that the majority element always exists in the array.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [3,2,3]
Output: 3
Explanation: Here, you can clearly see 3 comes 2 times and 2 comes 1 time. Hence, 3 is the majority element in the given array.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [2,2,1,1,1,2,2]
Output: 2

        for(int i=1;i<nums.length;i++){
            if(nums[index]==nums[i]){
                count+=1;
            }
            else{
                count-=1;
            }
