461. Hamming Distance
Easy
The Hamming distance between two integers is the number of positions at which the corresponding bits are different.
Given two integers x
and y
, return the Hamming distance between them.
Example 1:
Input: x = 1, y = 4
Output: 2
Explanation:
1 (0 0 0 1)
4 (0 1 0 0)

The above arrows point to positions where the corresponding bits are different.
Example 2:
Input: x = 3, y = 1
Output: 1
Constraints:
0 <= x, y <= 231 - 1
class Solution:
def hammingDistance(self, x: int, y: int) -> int:
count = 0
while x!= 0 or y!=0:
n = x&1
m = y&1
if n!=m:
count += 1
x = x >> 1
y = y >> 1
return count
