Leetcode题解-461. Hamming Distance【easy】
The Hamming distance between two integers is the number of positions at which the corresponding bits are different.
Given two integers x and y, calculate the Hamming distance.
Note:
0 ≤ x, y < 2^31.
Example:
Input: x = 1, y = 4
Output: 2
Explanation:
1 (0 0 0 1)
4 (0 1 0 0)

The above arrows point to positions where the corresponding bits are different.
思路
汉明距离(Hamming Distance)指的是两个等长的二进制串对应位置不同字符的个数。第一种方法,将两个十进制整数转换为二进制数,然后从最低位开始逐位相比(感觉比较麻烦);第二种方法将两个十进制数进行异或操作等到result,然后模拟手算将result转换为二进制数,result的二进制表示有几个1就代表汉明距离是几(这里采用这种方法)。
代码
int hammingDistance(int x, int y) {
int count = 0, result = x ^ y;
while(result != 0){
if(result % 2 == 1) count++;
result /= 2;
}
return count;
}
