Solution: Triples with Bitwise AND Equal To Zero

Understand how to efficiently count triplets in an integer array whose bitwise AND equals zero. Explore a two-phase approach that uses precomputed pairwise bitwise AND frequencies to reduce complexity from cubic to quadratic, improving performance while mastering bitwise problem-solving strategies.

Statement

You’re given an array of integers called nums. Your task is to count how many triplets of indexes (i, j, k) satisfy the condition nums[i] & nums[j] & nums[k] == 0, where & is the bitwise AND operator and 00 \leq i,, j,, k ...
