XOR Query Problem Statement

Assume you initially have an empty array called ARR. You are required to return the updated array after executing Q number of queries on this array.

There are two types of queries to perform:

  • 1 'VAL': Insert integer VAL at the end of the array.
  • 2 'VAL': Perform bitwise XOR on all elements of the array with VAL, i.e., update each element as ARR[i] = ARR[i] ^ VAL (where ^ denotes the bitwise XOR operation).

Example:

Input:
T = 1
Q = 3
1 2
1 3
2 1
Output:
[3, 2]
Explanation:

For the first query, insert 2 into the array resulting in [2]. For the second query, insert 3, resulting in [2, 3]. For the third query, XOR each element by 1, resulting in [3, 2].

Constraints:

  • 1 <= T <= 10
  • 1 <= Q <= 10^5
  • 1 <= Val <= 10^9
  • First query will always be a type 1 query.
  • The array is updated based on the cumulative changes of each query.
Note:

No need to print the output, focus on implementing the function correctly.
