Minimum Impossible OR

You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums.

You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums.

We say that an integer x is expressible from nums if there exist some integers 0 <= index1 < index2 < ... < indexk < nums.length for which nums[index1] | nums[index2] | ... | nums[indexk] = x. In other words, an integer is expressible if it can be written as the bitwise OR of some subsequence of nums.

Return the minimum positive non-zero integer that is not expressible from nums.

Minimum Impossible OR diagram

Example 1

Input: nums = [2,1]

Output: 4

Explanation: 1 and 2 are already present in the array. We know that 3 is expressible, since nums[0] | nums[1] = 2 | 1 = 3. Since 4 is not expressible, we return 4.

Example 2

Input: nums = [5,3,2]

Output: 1

Explanation: We can show that 1 is the smallest number that is not expressible.

Constraints

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 10^5
  • 1 <= nums[i] <= 10^9
