Comparing arrays that have same elements in different order

Question

I wrote below code to compare to arrays that have same elements but in diff order.

 Integer arr1[] = {1,4,6,7,2};
 Integer arr2[] = {1,2,7,4,6};

Answer 1

Try this function it return array:-

public static String[] numSame (String[] list1, String[] list2) 
     {  
          int same = 0;  
          for (int i = 0; i <= list1.length-1; i++) 
          {  
             for(int j = 0; j <= list2.length-1; j++) 
             {  
                if (list1[i].equals(list2[j])) 
                {  
                    same++;  
                    break;  
                }  
             }  
          }  

          String [] array=new String[same];
          int p=0;
          for (int i = 0; i <= list1.length-1; i++) 
          {  
             for(int j = 0; j <= list2.length-1; j++) 
             {  
                if (list1[i].equals(list2[j])) 
                {  
                    array[p]=  list1[i]+"";
                    System.out.println("array[p] => "+array[p]);
                    p++;
                    break;  
                }  
             }  
          } 
          return array;
       }
