Bitwise Equation
Given an integer $N$, find four **positive** **distinct** integers $a$, $b$, $c$ and $d$ such that: - $1 \leq a, b, c, d \leq 10^{18}$ - $((a\mathbin{\&}b)\mathbin{|}c)\oplus d = N$ Here $\mathbin{\&}$, $\mathbin{|}$, and $\oplus$ represent [bitwise AND, OR and XOR](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operation), respectively. If there are multiple answers, print **any** of them. If no answer
