You have an array of N numbers, where N is at most 32,000. The array may have duplicate entries and you do not know what N is. With only 4 Kilobytes of memory available, how would print all duplicate elements in the array ?.
Examples:
Input : arr[] = {1, 5, 1, 10, 12, 10} Output : 1 10 1 and 10 appear more than once in given array. Input : arr[] = {50, 40, 50} Output : 50

We have 4 Kilobytes of memory which means we can address up to 8 * 4 * 210 bits. Note that 32 * 210 bits is greater than 32000. We can create a bit with 32000 bits, where each bit represents one integer.
Note: If you need to create a bit with more than 32000 bits, then you can create easily more and more than 32000;
Using this bit vector, we can then iterate through the array, flagging each element v by setting bit v to 1. When we come across a duplicate element, we print it.
Below is the implementation of the idea.
