Make All Elements of the Array Distinct
Given an array/list ARR
of integers with size 'N', your task is to determine the minimum number of increments needed to make all elements of the array distinct. You are allowed to increase any element by 1 in each operation.
Example:
Input:
[1,4,4,5]
Output:
2
Explanation:
The third and fourth elements can be increased by 1 each, turning the array into [1,4,5,6]
, where all numbers are distinct. This requires 2 operations.
Constraints:
1 <= T <= 10
1 <= N <= 10^3
1 <= ARR[i] <= 10^4
- Time Limit: 1 sec
Input:
The first line contains the integer ‘T’, representing the number of test cases.
The first line of each test case contains the integer ‘N’.
The following line contains ‘N’ integers as the elements of the array/list ‘ARR’.
Output:
Return the minimum number of operations for each test case to make the elements of the array distinct.
Note:
No need to print anything; just implement the function to return the answer.
