text: Count number of common elements between a sorted array and a reverse sorted array | Java program for the above approach ; Function to count the number of elements common in both the arrays ; Used to traverse array A [ ] and B [ ] from the front and the back ; Stores the count of numbers common in both array ; If A [ first ] is less than B [ second ] ; Increment the value of first ; IF B [ second ] is less than A [ first ] ; Decrement the value of second ; A [ first ] is equal to B [ second ] ; Increment the value of count ; Increment the value of first ; Decrement the value of second ; Return the value of count ; Driver Code
