AND Product


Problem Statement :


Consider two non-negative long integers,  and , where . The bitwise AND of all long integers in the inclusive range between  and  can be expressed as , where  is the bitwise AND operator.

Given  pairs of long integers,  and , compute and print the bitwise AND of all natural numbers in the inclusive range between  and .

For example, if  and , the calculation is .

Function Description

Complete the andProduct in the editor below. It should return the computed value as an integer.

andProduct has the following parameter(s):

a: an integer
b: an integer
Input Format

The first line contains a single integer , the number of intervals to test.
Each of the next  lines contains two space-separated integers  and .

Output Format

For each pair of long integers, print the bitwise AND of all numbers in the inclusive range between  and  on a new line.

Tree: Huffman Decoding

Huffman coding assigns variable length codewords to fixed length input characters based on their frequencies. More frequent characters are assigned shorter codewords and less frequent characters are assigned longer codewords. All edges along the path to a character contain a code digit. If they are on the left side of the tree, they will be a 0 (zero). If on the right, they'll be a 1 (one). Only t

Swap Nodes [Algo]

A binary tree is a tree which is characterized by one of the following properties: It can be empty (null). It contains a root node only. It contains a root node with a left subtree, a right subtree, or both. These subtrees are also binary trees. In-order traversal is performed as Traverse the left subtree. Visit root.

Is This a Binary Search Tree?

For the purposes of this challenge, we define a binary tree to be a binary search tree with the following ordering requirements: The data value of every node in a node's left subtree is less than the data value of that node. The data value of every node in a node's right subtree is greater than the data value of that node. Given the root node of a binary tree, can you determine if it's also a
