2404. Most Frequent Even Element

Easy

Given an integer array nums, return the most frequent even element.

If there is a tie, return the smallest one. If there is no such element, return -1.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [0,1,2,2,4,4,1]

Output: 2

Explanation:

The even elements are 0, 2, and 4. Of these, 2 and 4 appear the most.

We return the smallest one, which is 2.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [4,4,4,9,2,4]

Output: 4

Explanation: 4 is the even element appears the most.

Example 3:

Input: nums = [29,47,21,41,13,37,25,7]

Output: -1

Explanation: There is no even element.

            }
        }
        return mostFrequent == Integer.MAX_VALUE ? -1 : mostFrequent;
    }
