Satisfy the equation

problem statement: https://practice.geeksforgeeks.org/problems/satisfy-the-equation5847/1

Given an array A[ ] of N of integers, find the index of values that satisfy A + B = C + D where A,B,C & D are integers values in the array.
Note: As there may be multiple pairs satisfying the equation return lexicographically smallest order of A, B, C and D and return all as -1 if there are no pairs satisfying the equation.

Example 1:

Input:
N = 7
A[] = {3, 4, 7, 1, 2, 9, 8}
Output:
0 2 3 5
Explanation:
A[0] + A[2] = 3+7 = 10
A[3] + A[5] = 1+9 = 10

Example 2:

Input:
N = 4
A[] = {424, 12, 31, 7}
Output:
-1 -1 -1 -1
Explanation:
There are no pairs satisfying the equation.

Expected Time Complexity: O(N² * logN²)

Expected Auxiliary Space: O(N²)

Solution

Here, we would create a user defined class Pair for storing Pair. This would be used to maintain the pair. Here map could be used, to store the sum, this sum could be corresponding to the Pair, this sum would be checked, for multiple non distinct pair. Hence we get the distinct pair and while moving from 0 to N we would get lexicographically smallest order index.

class Solution {
    static int[] satisfyEqn(int[] A, int N) {
        HashMap<Integer, ArrayList<Pair>> map = new HashMap<>();
        int a, b, c, d = 0;

        for(int i=0; i<N-1; i++) {
            for(int j=i+1; j<N; j++) {
                int sum = A[i]+A[j];

                if(!map.containsKey(sum)) {
                    map.put(sum, new ArrayList<Pair>());
                    map.get(sum).add(new Pair(i, j));
                } else {
                    map.get(sum).add(new Pair(i, j));
                }
            }
        }

        int [] arr = new int[4];
        Arrays.fill(arr, -1);

        for(int i=0; i<N-1; i++) {
            for(int j=i+1; j<N; j++) {
                int sum = A[i]+A[j];
                if(!map.containsKey(sum)) continue;

                ArrayList<Pair> lt = map.get(sum);
                for(Pair p: lt) {
                    if(p.a==i || p.b==j || p.a==j || p.b==i) continue;

                    arr[0]=i;
                    arr[1]=j;
                    arr[2]=p.a;
                    arr[3]=p.b;

                    return arr;
                }
            }
        }

        return arr;
    }
};

class Pair implements Comparable<Pair> {
    int a,  b;
    public Pair(int a, int b) {
        this.a=a;
        this.b=b;
    }

    @Override

            if(this.b > p.b) return 1;
