Given an array A[] of length N and an integer K, the task is to maximize the value of expression [i.j – K.(Ai | Aj)] over all pairs (i, j) in given Array, where (1 ≤ i < j ≤ N) and | denotes Bitwise OR operator.

Examples:

Input: A[] = {5, 20, 1, 0, 8, 11}, K = 10
Output: 2
Explanation: The maximum value of the expression f(i, j) = i.j – K.(A[i] | A[j]) can be found for below pair:
f(3, 4) = 3.4 – 10.(1 | 0) = 2

Input: A[] = {1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 19}, K = 3
Output: -9

 

Approach: The following observations have to be made:

Let f(i, j) = i.j – K.(Ai | Aj)

=> Notice that for f(i, j) to be maximum, i.j should be maximum and K.(Ai | Aj) should be minimum.
=> Thus, in the best case, f(i, j) will be maximum if 
      => K.(Ai | Aj) is equal to 0
      => i = (N-1) and j = N.
=> So, the maximum value of the expression can be f(i, j) = (N-1)*N.

=> Also, the minimum value will be obtained by subtracting the maximum value of K.(Ai | Aj) from (N-1)*N

=> It is known that 
a | b < 2*max(a, b) where | is the bitwise OR operator

         From the above property and the given constraints, it can be inferred:

  • The maximum value of (Ai | Aj) can be 2*N. because (0 ≤ Ai ≤ N)
  • The maximum value of K can be 100 because (1 ≤ K ≤ min(N, 100)).
  • So, the minimum value of f(i, j) will be:

f(i, j) = (N-1)*N – K*(Ai | Aj)
       = (N-1)*N – 100*2*N
       = N*(N – 201)

  • It can be easily observed that the resultant answer will always lie between:

N*(N-201) <= ans <= (N-1)*N

  • Also, notice that for i = N – 201 and j = N,
    • the maximum value of f(i, j) will be N*(N – 201),
    • which in turn is the minimum value of f(i, j) for i = N – 1 and j = N.
    • Thus, the maximum value of the expression has to be checked from i = N – 201 to i = N and j = i+1 to j = N.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

// C++ program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to find the maximum
// value of the given expression
long long int maxValue(int N, int K,
                       long long int A[])
{
    // Stores the maximum value of
    // the given expression
    long long int ans = LLONG_MIN;
 
    // Nested loops to find the maximum
    // value of the given expression
    for (long long int i = max(0, N - 201);
         i < N; ++i) {
        for (long long int j = i + 1;
             j < N; ++j) {
            ans = max(ans, (i + 1) * (j + 1)
                               - K * (A[i] | A[j]));
        }
    }
 
    // Return the answer
    return ans;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Given input
    int N = 6, K = 10;
    long long int A[N]
