Problem: Hamming Distance

easy
15 min
Explore how to compute the Hamming distance by comparing bit positions that differ between two integers. Learn to apply bitwise operations effectively to solve this problem, enhancing your coding skills in algorithm optimization and interview preparation.

Statement

The Hamming distance between two integers is defined as the number of bit positions where the corresponding bits of the two numbers differ.

Given two integers x and y, your task is to find and return the Hamming distance between them.

Constraints:

  • 00 \leq x, y 2311\leq 2^{31} - 1
