2429. Minimize XOR

LeetCodeGreedyBit ManipulationOpen on judge ↗

Given two positive integers num1 and num2, find the positive integer x such that: - x has the same number of set bits as num2, and - The value x XOR num1 is minimal. Note that XOR is the bitwise XOR operation. Return the integer x. The test cases are generated such that x is uniquely determined. The number of set bits of an integer is the number of 1's in its binary representation. Example
