# 25. Shuffle integers

The problem can be found at the following link: [Question Link](https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/problems/shuffle-integers2401/1)

![](https://badgen.net/badge/Level/Medium/yellow)

## My Approach

To shuffle the given array, I use the fact that integers can be represented with additional digits by adding an offset.

* I iterate through the array, combining pairs of elements into a single integer by adding the remainder of the second element multiplied by a large offset.
* After shuffling, I extract the original elements by dividing each element by the offset.

## Time and Auxiliary Space Complexity

* **Time Complexity**: `O(n)`, where `n` is the size of the array.
* **Auxiliary Space Complexity**: `O(1)`, as the extra space used is constant.

## Code (C++)

```cpp
class Solution {
public:
    void shuffleArray(int arr[], int n) {
        int offset = 1e5;
        for (int i = 0; i < n / 2; ++i) {
            arr[i * 2] += (arr[i] % offset) * offset;
            arr[i * 2 + 1] += (arr[n / 2 + i] % offset) * offset;
        }
        for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
            arr[i] = arr[i] / offset;
        }
    }
};
```
