@Hosch250 Your complexity analysis is correct, but you completely missed the fact that the algorithm is just wrong.
Or maybe the OP is confused.
 
@skiwi huh... so flag them for mod attention
 
12:15 AM
@200_success Maybe I'm confused.
Basically, it goes through and counts the instances of each character in both strings for every character in the first string.
Of course, it won't catch characters in the second string that are not in the first string that way, but the equality check ensures that this will make at least one other character not have the same counts.
It looks like it should work correctly to me.
 
OP has edited the question, and I've modified the title to match.
 
Oh, I see.
Huh, I'll edit my answer.
My answer worked for the first question :/

@200_success Shouldn't it be closed as blatantly broken considering the edit?
 
It wasn't broken. It's just that the original question was horribly unclear due to a misuse of English vocabulary.

Oh, I guess it does work correctly.
For some values of "correctly."

@MathiasEttinger ok ^^
@MathiasEttinger BTW, as an answer to the question you asked the OP, I guess 1 should be returned for [4,5,7,8]
because that's actually the first missing integer
6 would be the 4th
 
OP's implementation would return 1
 
I know/saw. And it's correct
 
But it's not entirely clear what the reference is, if the exercise ask for the absolute first missing integer or the first missing integer relative to the minimum of the list.
In the first case, we can use min(x for x in numbers if x > 0) as a starting point, but not in the second one.
 
9:13 AM
@MathiasEttinger Agree. What do you think about: dpaste.de/aUWC ? ^^
 
@Dex'ter That, as the OP, you’re sorting the array
So it will never be O(n)
 
I know. I was just playing around ;P
 
Kaz
@DanPantry Hey, you and me both ^^
 
9:27 AM
@EBrown Stargreed! @Phrancis
@EBrown Why on earth would you do that?? That's just crazy!
 
Kaz
Also, Monking @all
 
@MathiasEttinger Anyway, using an insertion sort at its best you can get \$O(n)\$ .Then, iterate through the list. If 1 is missing, that's our answer. If it's there, we can iteratively check if the next integer is the next number in the array, otherwise the next integer is the missing one. (for the first case)

@Vogel612 For any 2 integers, it's infinite. For any 2 positive integers greater than zero, if you consider 1+3 and 3+1 to be different, then it's (N-1) for odd numbers, and (N-2) for even numbers)
 
12:21 PM
@Kaz it's actually n+1 for any positive integer
 
Kaz
@Dex'ter How so? Take, say, 6: 1+5, 2+4, 3+3, 4+2, 5+1. That's 5.
 
@Kaz 0 also counts
I suppose
 
Kaz
@Dex'ter I did say greater than zero ^^ but yes, if you include zero, it becomes (N+1) and (N)
 
@Kaz didn't see that n > 0 condition
 
Kaz
Continuing: If you consider 1+3 and 3+1 to be the same, then it's (N-1)/2 for odd numbers, and (N)/2 for even ones. +1 if including Zero.

And gone.

Based on the explanation in the question and the comments, I suggest we close this question.
@CaptainObvious Wow, that was pretty blatant.
@Kaz Oh, turns out it's the same trick.
C was the last initial of the first director, so he signed with that.
M is the last initial of the first named director in the 007 franchise.
Consistency :-)

I like BlackHatGuy because there's several characters (that I know of) that it could refer to, and a bunch more that I come across.
Originally, it was because I had a black fedora, and I'm a fan of Black Hat Guy in XKCD.

I'm voting to close this question as off-topic. For code reviews, ask your question on codereview.stackexchange.com — Rhymoid 38 secs ago
This question definitely belong to codereview. And while it's technically correct, it's horribly inefficient. — Paul 37 secs ago
Another idea would be a "Outside of scope" entry for classifications. Often Coverity picks up issues in third-party tools which are outside of the scope of a code review. Right now we just set them to False Positive and Ignore, but it'd be nice if it was possible to make it clear the issues were not related to the codebase at all. — ChopperCharles just now
