Given a singly linked list, the task is to Count the pairs of nodes with greater Bitwise AND than Bitwise XOR.

Examples:

Input: list: 1->4->2->6->3
Output: 2
Explanation: 1st List Node Pair: (4, 6 ), Bitwise AND = 4, Bitwise XOR = 2
2nd List Node Pair: (2, 3), Bitwise AND = 2, Bitwise XOR = 1

Input: list: 17->34->62->46->30->51
Output: 7
Explanation: Valid List Node Pairs are (17, 30 ), (34, 62), (34, 46), (34, 51), (62, 46), (62, 51), (46, 51).

 

Naive Approach: The naive approach is to iterate the linked list and for each node find all other possible nodes forming a pair such that the bitwise AND is greater than bitwise XOR.

Below is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++




// C++ program for above approach
#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Structure of node of singly linked list
struct Node {
  int data;
  Node *next;
  Node(int x) {
    data = x;
  }
};
 
Node *head;
 
// Inserting new node at the beginning of the linked list
void push(int new_data)
{
  // Create a new node with the given data.
  Node *new_node = new Node(new_data);
 
  // Make the new node point to the head.
  if (head == NULL) {
    head = new_node;
    return;
  }
 
  new_node->next = head;
 
  // Make the new node as the head node.
  head = new_node;
}
 
 
// Function to find the count of all possible pairs
static int PerfectPair()
{
  int ans = 0;
 
  while (head != NULL) {
 
    Node *temp = head->next;
 
    while (temp != NULL) {
      if ((head->data & temp->data) > (head->data ^ temp->data)) {
        ans++;
      }
      temp = temp->next;
    }
 
    head = head->next;
  }
 
  return ans;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
 
  // Create an empty singly linked list
  head = NULL;
 
  // Insert values in Linked List
  push(51);
  push(30);
  push(46);
  push(62);
  push(34);
  push(17);
 
  // Call PerfectPair function
  cout << PerfectPair();
}

Time Complexity: O(N2)
Auxiliary Space: O(N)

Efficient Approach: The problem can be solved efficiently by using the below observation:

If First Set bit (Most significant bit) of two number is at same position, then the Bitwise AND or that numbers is always greater than the XOR because the XOR of two 1 is 0 and AND of two 1s is 1.
For any other cases, XOR will be always greater than the AND

Follow the below steps to solve the problem:

  • Traverse the linked list and Store the MSB position for each Node value in an array.
  • Initialize a variable ans to store the total possible pairs.
  • Create a hash map to store the count of nodes that have the same value of MSB (Most significant bit).
  • Traverse the array containing the MSB position and in each iteration:
    • Get the count of nodes that have the same position of MSB.
    • Add the count of possible pairs from these nodes into ans.
  • Return the answer variable.
