解法

    int majorityNumber(vector<int> nums) {
        // write your code here
        int ret, num = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < nums.size(); i++) {
            if (num == 0) {
                ret = nums[i];
                num++;
            } else {
                if (nums[i] == ret) {
                    num++;
                } else {
                    num--;
                }
            }
        }
        return ret;
    }

算法解释

一个思路，同时删除两个不同的数，那么结果不会变
