The gray code is a binary numeral system where two successive values differ in only one bit.
Given a non-negative integer n representing the total number of bits in the code, print the sequence of gray code. A gray code sequence must begin with 0.
For example, given n = 2, return [0,1,3,2]
. Its gray code sequence is:
00 - 0 01 - 1 11 - 3 10 - 2
Note:
For a given n, a gray code sequence is not uniquely defined.
For example, [0,2,3,1]
is also a valid gray code sequence according to the above definition.
For now, the judge is able to judge based on one instance of gray code sequence. Sorry about that.
分析:返回格雷码。二进制数转为格雷码的过程为:从左至右,保留第一位,将二进制数第一位或上二进制第二位得到格雷码第二位,二进制第二位或上二进制第三位得到格雷码第三位....以此类推。比如,二进制数1010,首先保留1,然后将1或上0得到1, 0或上1得到1, 1或上0得到0,所以结果为1110。
其实说白了就是a ^ (a >> 1).
