Write a function(int[]) -> int that returns the lowest unassigned integer. For example [] -> 1 (empty set), [1] -> 2, [5, 3, 1] -> 2. Basically just sort the array, iterate, and compare current and previous. If there is a gap then that's your number.

The first question he gave me was not hard. 1. You call to someone's house and asked if they have two children. The answer happens to be yes. Then you ask if one of their children is a boy. The answer happens to be yes again. What's the probability that the second child is a boy? 2. (Much harder) You call to someone's house and asked if they have two children. The answer happens to be yes. Then you ask if one of their children's name a William. The answer happens to be yes again.(We assume William is a boy's name, and that it's possible that both children are Williams) What's the probability that the second child is a boy?
