Circular Bitwise AND Range
Summary
- •Phase 6 / bitwise/sliding-window
- •Reasoning-first competitive programming drill
Problem Description
Given a circular array of n integers, for each possible length l (1 ≤ ), compute the maximum bitwise AND among all subarrays of length l.
How to read this problem in plain language:
- This is a Phase 6 reasoning drill focused on bitwise/sliding-window.
- Typical lenses to test first: bitwise, sliding-window, circular-array.
- Constraints reminder: 1 ≤ , 0 ≤
Mini examples for mental simulation:
1) Boundary example: Describe why this case is tricky. Explain expected behavior and why naive logic may fail.
2) Adversarial example: Adversarial case where naive greedy/local decision looks correct but fails globally.
Lite-mode writing target:
- Write 1~2 observations that shrink the search space.
- Name one final algorithm and state target complexity explicitly.
- Validate with at least 2 edge cases and one hand simulation.
Constraints
- •1 ≤ , 0 ≤
