Make A-B Same

CodeChefRating 1335Open on judge ↗

You are given two *binary* arrays $A$ and $B$, each of size $N$ $(N \geq 3)$. You can perform the following operation on array $A$: - Select three indexes $i, j,$ and $k$ $(1 \le i \lt j \lt k \le N)$, \ and set $A_j=A_i$ $|$ $A_j$ $|$ $A_k$. Here $|$ denotes the [bitwise OR](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operation#OR) operation. Determine whether it is possible to convert the array $A$
