Given an array arr[], the task is to count pairs such that each pair (arr[i], arr[j]) contains at least one even element in it where i != j.

Examples: 

Input: arr[] = {1, 2, 3, 1, 3} 
Output:
Explanation: 
Possible pairs are: (1, 2), (2, 3), (2, 1), (2, 3).

Input: arr[] = {8, 2, 3, 1, 4, 2} 
Output: 14 
Explanation: 
Possible pairs are: (8, 2), (8, 3), (8, 1), (8, 4), (8, 2), (2, 3), (2, 1), (2, 4), (2, 2), (3, 4), (3, 2), (1, 4), (1, 2), (4, 2). 

A Simple Approach is to run two loops. Pick each element one-by-one and for each element find element on right side of array that holds condition, then increment count.
Time Complexity: 

O(N^{2})

Below is the implementation of the above approach:   

C++

// C++ implementation to count
// pairs in an array such that
// each pair contains at
// least one even element
#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
  
// Function to count the pairs in
// the array such as there is at
// least one even element in each pair
int CountPairs(int arr[], int n)
{
    int count = 0;
  
    // Generate all possible pairs
    // and increment then count
    // if the condition is satisfied
    for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
       for(int j = i + 1; j < n; j++)
       {
          if (arr[i] % 2 == 0 ||
              arr[j] % 2 == 0)
              count++;
       }
    }
    return count;
}
  
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 8, 2, 3, 1, 4, 2 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(int);
  
    // Function call
    cout << (CountPairs(arr, n));
}

    static int CountPairs(int[] arr, int n)
    {
 
        int count = 0;
 
        // Generate all possible pairs
        // and increment then count
        // if the condition is satisfied
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            for (int j = i + 1; j < n; j++) {
 
                if (arr[i] % 2 == 0
                    || arr[j] % 2 == 0)
                    count++;
            }
        }
 
        return count;
    }
 
    // Driver code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
 
        int[] arr = { 8, 2, 3, 1, 4, 2 };
        int n = arr.length;
 
        // Function Call
        System.out.println(CountPairs(arr, n));
    }
}

Efficient Approach: The idea is to count the even and odd elements in the array and include pairs having only one even element or both the pairs to be even element. 

  • Pair having exactly one even element: count of the pairs having exactly one even element will be:

(even*odd)

  • Pair having exactly two even elements: count of the pairs having exactly two even elements will be:

\frac{(even*(even-1))}{2}        

Therefore, the count of the pairs having at least one even element will be 
\frac{(even*(even-1))}{2} + (even*odd)

Below is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++

// C++ implementation to Count
// pairs in an array such that
// each pair contains at
// least one even element
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count the pairs in
// the array such as there is at
// least one even element in each pair
int CountPairs(int arr[], int n)
{
     
    // Store count of even
    // and odd elements
    int even = 0, odd = 0;
    for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
         
       // Check element is
       // even or odd
       if (arr[i] % 2 == 0)
           even++;
       else
           odd++;
    }
    return (even * (even - 1)) / 2 +
           (even * odd);
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 8, 2, 3, 1, 4, 2 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(int);
     
    cout << CountPairs(arr, n);
}
