花花酱 LeetCode 461. Hamming Distance

Problem

The Hamming distance between two integers is the number of positions at which the corresponding bits are different.

Given two integers x and y, calculate the Hamming distance.

Note:
0 ≤ xy < 231.

Example:

Input: x = 1, y = 4

Output: 2

Explanation:
1   (0 0 0 1)
4   (0 1 0 0)
       ↑   ↑

The above arrows point to positions where the corresponding bits are different.

Solution: Bit Operation

Time complexity: O(logn)

Space complexity: O(1)

C++

Problem:

Given an array containing n distinct numbers taken from 0, 1, 2, …, n, find the one that is missing from the array.

For example,
Given nums = [0, 1, 3] return 2.

Note:
Your algorithm should run in linear runtime complexity. Could you implement it using only constant extra space complexity?

 

Idea:

sum / xor
