zig-zag_array_unsorted.cpp

/*
Approach : Swap pairs of elements except the first element.
As - keep a[0], swap a[1] with a[2], swap a[3] with a[4], and so on.
So, we will take array and its size as parameters, run a loop from i to size of the array 
and swap every pair of element using swap function. At the end of loop, we will print the array.

Sample Input/Output:

Input: Enter size of array : 7
       Enter array :
       4
       3
       7
       8
       6
       2
       1

Output:Zig-Zag array is : 4  7  3  6  8  1  2


Time Complexity : O(n)
Space Complexity : O(1)
