DIY: Single Element in a Sorted Array

Explore how to solve the problem of finding the unique element in a sorted array where every other element appears twice. Learn to implement an O(log n) time complexity solution with constant space, preparing you for coding interviews focused on algorithmic efficiency.

Problem statement

In this problem, you are given an array of sorted integers in which all of the integers will appear twice, except one. Your task is to find that single integer, which will appear only once.

Please note that your solution will have a time complexity of ...
