2588. Count the Number of Beautiful Subarrays

Problem Link

Description

---

You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums. In one operation, you can:

• Choose two different indices i and j such that 0 <= i, j < nums.length.
• Choose a non-negative integer k such that the kth bit (0-indexed) in the binary representation of nums[i] and nums[j] is 1.
• Subtract 2k from nums[i] and nums[j].

A subarray is beautiful if it is possible to make all of its elements equal to 0 after applying the above operation any number of times (including zero).

Return the number of beautiful subarrays in the array nums.

A subarray is a contiguous non-empty sequence of elements within an array.

Note: Subarrays where all elements are initially 0 are considered beautiful, as no operation is needed.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [4,3,1,2,4]
Output: 2
Explanation: There are 2 beautiful subarrays in nums: [4,3,1,2,4] and [4,3,1,2,4].
- We can make all elements in the subarray [3,1,2] equal to 0 in the following way:
  - Choose [3, 1, 2] and k = 1. Subtract 21 from both numbers. The subarray becomes [1, 1, 0].
  - Choose [1, 1, 0] and k = 0. Subtract 20 from both numbers. The subarray becomes [0, 0, 0].
- We can make all elements in the subarray [4,3,1,2,4] equal to 0 in the following way:
  - Choose [4, 3, 1, 2, 4] and k = 2. Subtract 22 from both numbers. The subarray becomes [0, 3, 1, 2, 0].
  - Choose [0, 3, 1, 2, 0] and k = 0. Subtract 20 from both numbers. The subarray becomes [0, 2, 0, 2, 0].
  - Choose [0, 2, 0, 2, 0] and k = 1. Subtract 21 from both numbers. The subarray becomes [0, 0, 0, 0, 0].

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,10,4]
Output: 0
Explanation: There are no beautiful subarrays in nums.

 

Constraints:

• 1 <= nums.length <= 105
• 0 <= nums[i] <= 106

Python3

class Solution:
    def beautifulSubarrays(self, nums: List[int]) -> int:
        N = len(nums)
        res = curr = 0
        
        cnt = Counter()
        cnt[0] = 1
        
        for x in nums:
            curr ^= x
            res += cnt[curr]
            
            cnt[curr] += 1
            
        return res
