169 Majority Element [LeetCode Java实现]

题目链接：majority-element

/**
 *
		Given an array of size n, find the majority element.
		The majority element is the element that appears more than ⌊ n/2 ⌋ times.

		You may assume that the array is non-empty and the majority element always exist in the array.

	//时间复杂度为 O(n), 空间复杂度为 O(1)

	//因为最多的那个元素占一半及以上， 故能够和别的元素相互抵消，最后剩下的未抵消掉的元素为所求
	//将数组分成三块：num[0...i]为 归并的 还未抵消的数组。 num[i+1...j－1]空暇区， num[j...num.length-1]为等待抵消的数组
	//抵消规则：若num[i] = num[j] 则把num[j]归入num[0...i+1]数组中
	//		 若num[i] != num[j] 则把num[i] 抵消掉 然后 i－－
