Xor-sequence
Problem Statement :
An array, A, is defined as follows: A0 = 0 Ax = Ax-1 + x for x >0, where is the symbol for XOR You will be given a left and right index l r. You must determine the XOR sum of the segment of A as A[l] + A[l+1] + ... + A[[r-l] + A[r]. For example, A = [0,1,3,0,4,1,7,0,8]. The segment from l=1 to r=4 sums to 1 +3 +0 + 4 = 6. Print the answer to each question. Function Description Complete the xorSequence function in the editor below. It should return the integer value calculated. xorSequence has the following parameter(s): l: the lower index of the range to sum r: the higher index of the range to sum Input Format The first line contains an integer q, the number of questions. Each of the next q lines contains two space-separated integers, l[i] and r[i], the inclusive left and right indexes of the segment to query. Constraints 1 <= q <= 10^5 1 <= l[i] <= r[i] <= 10^15 Output Format On a new line for each test case, print the XOR-Sum of A's elements in the inclusive range between indices l[i] and r[i].
