public class Solution {
    public int majorityElement(int[] num) {
        // assuming the num is not null and empty.
        
        int most = num[0];
        int counter = 1;
        
        for(int i=1; i<num.length; i++) {
            if(num[i] == most) {
                ++counter;
            } else {
                if(counter==0) {
                    most = num[i];
                    ++counter;
                } else {
                    --counter;
                }
            }
