HACKRNDM - Hacking the random number generator
You recently wrote a random number generator code for a web application and now you notice that some cracker has cracked it. It now gives numbers at a difference of some given value k more predominantly. You being a hacker decide to write a code that will take in n numbers as input and a value k and find the total number of pairs of numbers whose absolute difference is equal to k, in order to assist you in your random number generator testing.
NOTE: All values fit in the range of a signed integer, n, k>=1
Input
1st line contains n & k.
2nd line contains n numbers of the set. All the n numbers are assured to be distinct.
(Edited: n <= 10^5)
Output
One integer saying the no of pairs of numbers that have a diff k.
Example
Input: 5 2
1 5 3 4 2 Output: 3

using maps will do the job AC in one go |

that's why i love binary search AC in 0.04 sec:) |

C++STL or binary search take your pick! |

try to do binary search iteratively, recursive approach will give TLE |

1.no binary search,no 2 pointer,no sorting just map<int,int>

sorting + O(n), no binary search, no two pointer
