题目描述:
Given a range [m, n] where 0 <= m <= n <= 2147483647, return the bitwise AND of all numbers in this range, inclusive.
For example, given the range [5, 7], you should return 4.
解题思路:
通过观察可以得出,对m和n之间(包括m, n)的所有数字进行&操作,就相当于找到m, n二进制中左边相同的1。比如:
5 101 6 110 7 111 4 100
代码:
1 class Solution { 2 public: 3 int rangeBitwiseAnd(int m, int n) { 4 int bits = 0; //右移的位数,最后再左移回来 5 while(m != n && m != 0){ 6 m = m>>1; 7 n = n>>1; 8 bits++; 9 } 10 return m<<bits; 11 } 12 };
