Short Problem Definition:
Numeros, the Artist, had two lists A and B, such that B was a permutation of A. Numeros was very proud of these lists. Unfortunately, while transporting them from one exhibition to another, some numbers from A got left out. Can you find the numbers missing?

Complexity:
time complexity is O(n)
space complexity is O(n)
Execution:
The problem statement informs us, that there are only 100 different values. This calls for a counting sort.0
