Given an array of integers, and a number ‘sum’, find the number of pairs of integers in the array whose sum is equal to ‘sum’.
Examples:
Input : arr[] = {1, 5, 7, -1}, sum = 6 Output : 2 Pairs with sum 6 are (1, 5) and (7, -1) Input : arr[] = {1, 5, 7, -1, 5}, sum = 6 Output : 3 Pairs with sum 6 are (1, 5), (7, -1) & (1, 5) Input : arr[] = {1, 1, 1, 1}, sum = 2 Output : 6 There are 3! pairs with sum 2. Input : arr[] = {10, 12, 10, 15, -1, 7, 6, 5, 4, 2, 1, 1, 1}, sum = 11 Output : 9
Expected time complexity O(n)
Naive Solution – A simple solution is to traverse each element and check if there’s another number in the array which can be added to it to give sum.

Count of pairs is 3
Time Complexity: O(n2)
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
Efficient solution –
A better solution is possible in O(n) time. Below is the Algorithm –
- Create a map to store frequency of each number in the array. (Single traversal is required)
- In the next traversal, for every element check if it can be combined with any other element (other than itself!) to give the desired sum. Increment the counter accordingly.
- After completion of second traversal, we’d have twice the required value stored in counter because every pair is counted two times. Hence divide count by 2 and return.
Below is the implementation of above idea :
