  1. Get rid of the changes to package.json or package-lock.json.
  2. This is not a general solution as the name currently suggests. It only works if (1) there is exactly one unique element (2) all duplicate elements occur an even number of times.
  3. This can be written more concisely as arr.reduce((acc, val) => acc ^ val, 0).

  • Please use a proper JSDoc comment (and don't phrase it as "if the interviewer asks" etc.; that's fluff that should be omitted).
  • By "get rid of the changes to package.json and package-lock.json" I meant remove the changes to them from this PR, not remove the files.
