Find arrangement of Array such that prefix OR is maximum for each index

Given an array arr[] consisting of N non-negative integers. The task is to find a rearrangement of the array such that the prefix OR for each index is maximum among all possible arrangements.

Examples:

Input: N = 4, arr[] = [1, 2, 4, 8] 
Output: [8, 4, 2, 1]
Explanation:  Prefix of the rearranged array is [8, 8 | 4, 8 | 4 | 2, 8 | 4 | 2 | 1] = [8, 12, 14, 15].

Input: N = 6, arr[] = [2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4]
Output : [4, 3, 2, 2, 3, 4]
Explanation: Prefix of the rearranged array is [4, 4 | 3, 4 | 3 | 2, 4 | 3 | 2 | 2, 4 | 3 | 2 | 2 | 3, 4 | 3 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 4] = [4, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7].

Input: N = 2, arr[] = [1, 2]
Output: [2, 1]

Approach:

We can make the observation that only the first log₂(maxval) elements matter, Since after placing them optimally we can be sure that all possible bits that could be set in the prefix OR would have already been set.

So, we can brute force the optimal choice log₂(maxval) times (we choose to add an element if it provides the largest new prefix OR value among all unused elements) and then just add the rest of the unused elements. [maxvalue represents the maximum value in the array].

Follow the steps mentioned below to implement the approach.

• Create a dummy array (say temp[]) of size N, to store the final result.
• Create a visited array (say vis[]) of size N to check whether an element is previously visited or not and initialize it with false.
• Initialize a variable cur_or with 0 for calculating the prefix OR.
• Start iterating from min(30, N) to 0 [as a maximum of 30 bits can be set].
  • Initialize a variable mx to store the maximum prefix OR at every position, and another variable idx to the index from where the maximum prefix OR is calculated. 
  • Iterate from 0 to N and do the following operation 
    • if the element is previously visited then skip it.
    • if ( cur_or | arr[j] ) is greater than mx then update (max_or) with ( cur_or | arr[j] ) and update idx with j.
  • Update vis[idx] with true, temp[k++] with arr[idx] where k maintains the index where the next element will be placed in the temporary array.
• Put the remaining unvisited elements in the temporary array.
• Update array arr[] with temp.

Below is the Implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ code to implement the approach

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

// Function performing calculation
void solve(int n, vector<int>& arr)
{
    vector<int> temp(n);
    int j = 0;
    vector<int> vis(n, false);
    int cur_or = 0;

    // Loop to calculate the maximum prefix
    for (int i = min(n, 30); i > 0; i--) {

        int mx = 0;
        int idx = -1;
        for (int j = 0; j < n; j++) {
            if (vis[j])
                continue;

            // If temp maximum element is
            // smaller than (previous or | current element)
            // then update temporary max
            if (mx < (cur_or | arr[j])) {
                mx = (cur_or | arr[j]);
                idx = j;
            }
        }
        vis[idx] = true;

        // Storing the element in the temp array
        temp[j++] = arr[idx];
        cur_or = (cur_or | arr[idx]);
    }

    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {

        // Storing remaining element in the temp array
        if (!vis[i]) {
            temp[j++] = arr[i];
        }
    }
    arr = temp;
}

// Function for printing the array
void print(vector<int>& arr, int n)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        cout << arr[i] << " ";
    }
    cout << endl;
}

// Driver Code
int main()
{
    vector<int> arr = { 1, 2, 4, 8 };
    int N = arr.size();
    solve(N, arr);
    print(arr, N);

    vector<int> arr2 = { 1, 2 };
    N = arr2.size();
    solve(N, arr2);
    print(arr2, N);

    vector<int> arr3 = { 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4 };
    N = arr3.size();
    solve(N, arr3);
    print(arr3, N);

    vector<int> arr4 = { 10 };
    N = arr4.size();
    solve(N, arr3);
    print(arr4, N);

    return 0;
}
