Problem
You are given a binary string s
, and a 2D integer array queries
where queries[i] = [firsti, secondi]
.
For the ith
query, find the shortest substring of s
whose decimal value, val
, yields secondi
when bitwise XORed with firsti
. In other words, val ^ firsti == secondi
.
The answer to the ith
query is the endpoints (0-indexed) of the substring [lefti, righti]
or [-1, -1]
if no such substring exists. If there are multiple answers, choose the one with the minimum lefti
.
Return an array ans
where ans[i] = [lefti, righti]
is the answer to the ith
query.
A substring is a contiguous non-empty sequence of characters within a string.
Example 1:
Input: s = "101101", queries = [[0,5],[1,2]] Output: [[0,2],[2,3]] Explanation: For the first query the substring in range[0,2]
is "101" which has a decimal value of5
, and5 ^ 0 = 5
, hence the answer to the first query is[0,2]
. In the second query, the substring in range[2,3]
is "11", and has a decimal value of 3, and 3^ 1 = 2
. So,[2,3]
is returned for the second query.
Example 2:
Input: s = "0101", queries = [[12,8]]
Output: [[-1,-1]]
Explanation: In this example there is no substring that answers the query, hence [-1,-1] is returned
.
Example 3:
Input: s = "1", queries = [[4,5]] Output: [[0,0]] Explanation: For this example, the substring in range[0,0]
has a decimal value of1
, and1 ^ 4 = 5
. So, the answer is[0,0]
.
Constraints:
1 <= s.length <= 104
s[i]
is either'0'
or'1'
.1 <= queries.length <= 105
0 <= firsti, secondi <= 109
