Given 2 integers $u$ and $v$, find the shortest array such that bitwise-xor of its elements is $u$, and the sum of its elements is $v$.
Input
The only line contains 2 integers $u$ and $v$ $(0 \le u,v \le 10^{18})$.
Output
If there’s no array that satisfies the condition, print “-1”. Otherwise:
The first line should contain one integer, $n$, representing the length of the desired array. The next line should contain $n$ positive integers, the array itself. If there are multiple possible answers, print any.
Examples
input
2 4
output
2 3 1
input
1 3
output
3 1 1 1
input
8 5
output
-1
input
0 0
output
0
Note
In the first sample, $3\oplus 1 = 2$ and $3 + 1 = 4$. There is no valid array of smaller length.
Notice that in the fourth sample the array is empty.
Solution:
#include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; #define rep(i,a,n) for (int i=a;i<n;i++) #define per(i,a,n) for (int i=n-1;i>=a;i--) #define pb push_back #define mp make_pair #define all(x) (x).begin(),(x).end() #define fi first #define se second #define SZ(x) ((int)(x).size()) typedef vector<int> VI; typedef long long ll; typedef pair<int,int> PII; typedef double db; mt19937 mrand(random_device{}()); const ll mod=1000000007; int rnd(int x) { return mrand() % x;} ll powmod(ll a,ll b) {ll res=1;a%=mod; assert(b>=0); for(;b;b>>=1){if(b&1)res=res*a%mod;a=a*a%mod;}return res;} ll gcd(ll a,ll b) { return b?gcd(b,a%b):a;} // head ll u,v; int main() { scanf("%lld%lld",&u,&v); if ((v-u)%2!=0) { puts("-1"); return 0; } if (u>v) { puts("-1"); return 0; } if (u==0&&v==0) { puts("0"); return 0; } if (u==v) { puts("1"); printf("%lld\n",u); return 0; } ll p=(v-u)/2; ll q=u^p; if (p+q==v) { puts("2"); printf("%lld %lld\n",p,q); return 0; } puts("3"); printf("%lld %lld %lld\n",u,(v-u)/2,(v-u)/2); }
