MissingInteger Find the smallest positive integer that does not occur in a given sequence.

Write a function:

fun solution(A: IntArray): Int

that, given an array A of N integers, returns the smallest positive integer (greater than 0) that does not occur in A.

For example, given A = [1, 3, 6, 4, 1, 2], the function should return 5.

Given A = [1, 2, 3], the function should return 4.

Given A = [−1, −3], the function should return 1.

Write an efficient algorithm for the following assumptions:

N is an integer within the range [1..100,000]; each element of array A is an integer within the range [−1,000,000..1,000,000].

fun solution(A: IntArray): Int {
// write your code in Kotlin
val maxNum = A.max()
val N: Int = A.count()
val set: MutableSet<Int> = HashSet()
for (a in A) {
if (a > 0) {
set.add(a)
}
}
for (i in 1..N + 1) {
if (!set.contains(i)) {
return i
}
}
return (maxNum!! + 1)
}
