Minimum operations required to make all elements in an array of first N odd numbers equal | C ++ program for the above approach ; Function to find the minimum number of operations required to make the array elements equal ; Stores the array elements ; Stores the sum of the array ; Iterate over the range [ 0 , N ] ; Update the value arr [ i ] ; Increment the sum by the value arr [ i ] ; Stores the middle element ; If N is even ; Otherwise ; Stores the result ; Traverse the range [ 0 , N / 2 ] ; Update the value of ans ; Return the result ; Driver Code
