You are given an array/list ‘BINARYNUMS’ that consists of ‘N’ distinct strings which represent all integers from 0 to N in binary representation except one integer. This integer between 0 to ‘N’ whose binary representation is not present in list ‘BINARYNUMS’ is called ‘Missing Integer’.

Your task is to find the binary representation of that ‘Missing Integer’. You should return a string that represents this ‘Missing Integer’ in binary without leading zeros.

Note

1. There will be no leading zeros in any string in the list ‘BINARYNUMS’.

Example:

Consider N = 5 and the list ‘binaryNums’=  [“0”, “01”, “010”, “100”, “101”].  This list consists of the binary representation of numbers [0, 1, 2, 4, 5]. Clearly, the missing number is 3 and its binary representation will be “11”. So you should return string “11”.
Problem approach

just subtract sum(list) from sum of natural number from 1 to 9

You are given an array ‘Arr’ consisting of ‘N’ distinct integers and a positive integer ‘K’. Find out Kth smallest and Kth largest element of the array. It is guaranteed that K is not greater than the size of the array.

Example:

Let ‘N’ = 4,  ‘Arr’ be [1, 2, 5, 4] and ‘K’ = 3.  
then the elements of this array in ascending order is [1, 2, 4, 5].  Clearly, the 3rd smallest and largest element of this array is 4 and 2 respectively.

I used sorting (not the optimal way of solving it)
