public int (int[] candies) {
    int half = candies.length / 2;
    int count = 0;
    boolean[] visit = new boolean[200001];

    for (int candy : candies) {
        if (!visit[candy + 100000]) {
            count++;
            visit[candy + 100000] = true;
        }

        if (count == half)
            break;
    }
    
    return count;
