public class Main {
    
    static int N = 200010, M = 21 * N;
    static int son[][] = new int[M][2], idx;
    // l[i]表示从 i到n 范围内异或和子段的最大/最小值
    static int lmin[] = new int[N], lmax[] = new int[N];
    // r[i]表示从 1到i 范围内异或和子段的最大/最小值
    static int rmin[] = new int[N], rmax[] = new int[N];
    static int a[] = new int[N];
    static int n;
    
    /* 
        a^b^b = a
        所以对于区间也是如此: 
        比如: 在计算rmin[]和rmax[]时, 当枚举到k时
        sum是一段连续的区间异或和: a[1]^a[2]...^a[k],
        每次query_min(sum)时, 因为trie里面存的是每个从1到k的区间异或和:[1-3], [1-6]...
        比如 sum ^ [1-3] = [4-k],
        所以每次异或后求得的最小值即为区间1到k中的某个字段的异或和, 
        求一下前缀, 求一下后缀, 最后计算一下, 就能覆盖所有的情况
