Problem Link: APPENDOR Problem - CodeChef

so here the question says β€˜or’ operation between all element of the array is some number let it is β€˜n’ . then it says that if i have a veriable x. then if i do or operation between x and n then it gives me y which is given. so we have to find x. so what i do. i just calculate first our n. then if you know xor operation what its do . its some time plays a role like substraction when the bits of two digits are same. and or is like addition between minimum numbers and bits of two digits have to same. then we return the answer(x) by xor operation and once we cross check the answer by if the (x or n)= y or not if not then return -1;
