OPBIT - Operation Bits |
Operation bits - A new operation conducted by the secret team currently working on a project on security enhancement. Mr. Abay, the team head, has found a new pattern on the perfect squares. This can be used as a outer cover for his project as its securing power is low. So he assign you this problem to find the key based on the given conditions:
"An two adjacent perfect squares have their absolute difference as an odd number except when a and b are equal. Your task is to find the key which is defined as:
key(a, b) where a and b are perfect squares is ( ( AND( absolute difference between every adjacent perfect squares in [a, b]) ) AND ( XOR( absolute difference between every adjacent perfect squares in [a, b]) ) )"
Find the key for the given inputs :)
Input
The input begins with a number T (1 ≤ T ≤ 1000) where T is the number of test cases.
T lines follow
Each line has two numbers a and b (0 < a ≤ b ≤ 106)
It is assured that a and b are perfect squares.
Output
For each test case print the corresponding key.
Example
Input: 2 1 4 25 49 Output: 3 0
for test case 1 we have key=(3)&(3)=3

Nice Problem, enjoyed solving it! @Benkindersophobia: Is it possible to adjust the time limit for python 3? |

@Benkindersophobia Can you please tell me where my solution fails, Or mt algorithm is wrong? Got it. EDIT: AC. Last edit: 2013-12-04 12:04:00 |
