Tcl program to find out unique/odd elements using XOR
Write a Tcl program to find out unique/odd elements from the list 1,3,5,7,7,5,3,1,9. Input : 1,3,5,7,7,5,3,1,9 output : 9 While there are multiple ways to achieve this, as a hashtag VLSI engineer, we'll leverage the hashtag XOR operation. XOR (exclusive OR) results in 1 when two inputs are different and 0 when they are equal. In our program, every number appears twice except for 9. Therefore, by XOR-ing all elements in the list, the result will be 9, the unique/odd element. Below is Tcl Program: hashtag # Define the list set lst [list 1 3 5 3 1 5 9] hashtag # Initialize a variable to store the result set result 0 hashtag # iterate through the list and XOR all elements foreach num $lst { set result [expr {$result ^ $num}] } hashtag # The 'result' variable now contains the odd element puts "The odd element in the list is: $result" "This works well if we have a single unique element, but if there are two or more unique elements, a little extra effort is ...
