Find maximum XOR of given integer in a stream of integers in C++


In this problem, we are given Q queries each of which is one of the following type,

Type 1 − insertion (1, i) to add the element with value i, in your data structure.

Type 2 − findXOR (2, i), to find the XOR of all elements of the data structure with the element i.

The data structure should contain only 1 element initially which will be 0.

Let’s take an example to understand the problem,

Input

Queries: (1, 9), (1, 3), (1, 7), (2, 8), (1, 5), (2, 12)

Output

15 15

Explanation

Solving each query,
(1, 9) => data structure => {9}
(1, 3) => data structure => {9, 3}
(1, 7) => data structure => {9, 3, 7}
(2, 8) => maximum XOR(_, 8) = 15, XOR(7, 8)
(1, 5) => data structure => {9, 3, 7, 5}
(2, 12) => maximum XOR(_, 12) = 15, XOR(3, 12)

Solution Approach

The solution to the problem can be found using the trie data structure, which is a special type of search tree. We will use a trie in which each node has two child nodes to store the binary values of a number. After this we will add the number’s binary value to the trie for each query of type 1. For a query of type 2, we will find the path in trie for the given value and then the level count will give the result.

#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
struct Trie {
   Trie* children[2];
   bool isLeaf;
};
bool check(int N, int i) {
   return (bool)(N & (1<<i));
}
Trie* newNode() {
   Trie* temp = new Trie;
   temp->isLeaf = false;
   temp->children[0] = NULL;
   temp->children[1] = NULL;
   return temp;
}
void insertVal(Trie* root, int x) {
   Trie* val = root;
   for (int i = 31; i >= 0; i--) {
      int f = check(x, i);
      if (! val->children[f])
         val->children[f] = newNode();
         val = val->children[f];
   }
   val->isLeaf = true;
}
int solveQueryType2(Trie *root, int x){
   Trie* val = root;
   int ans = 0;
   for (int i = 31; i >= 0; i--) {
      int f = check(x, i);
      if ((val->children[f ^ 1])){
         ans = ans + (1 << i);
         val = val->children[f ^ 1];
      }
      else
      val = val->children[f];
   }
   return ans;
}
void solveQueryType1(Trie *root, int x){
   insertVal(root, x);
}
int main(){
   int Q = 6;
   int query[Q][2] = {{1, 9}, {1, 3}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {1, 5}, {2, 12}};
   Trie* root = newNode();
   for(int i = 0; i < Q; i++){
      if(query[i][0] == 1 ){
         solveQueryType1(root, query[i][1]);
         cout<<"Value inserted to the data Structure. value =
         "<<query[i][1]<<endl;
      }
      if(query[i][0] == 2){
         cout<<"The maximum XOR with "<<query[i][1]<<" is
         "<<solveQueryType2(root, query[i][1])<<endl;
      }
   }
   return 0;
}

Output

Value inserted to the data Structure. value = 9
Value inserted to the data Structure. value = 3
Value inserted to the data Structure. value = 7
The maximum XOR with 8 is 15
Value inserted to the data Structure. value = 5
The maximum XOR with 12 is 15
