1787. Make the XOR of All Segments Equal to Zero

Hard

You are given an array nums and an integer k. The XOR of a segment [left, right] where left <= right is the XOR of all the elements with indices between left and right, inclusive: nums[left] XOR nums[left+1] XOR ... XOR nums[right].

Return the minimum number of elements to change in the array such that the XOR of all segments of size k is equal to zero.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,2,0,3,0], k = 1

Output: 3

Explanation: Modify the array from [1,2,0,3,0] to from [0,0,0,0,0].

Example 2:

Input: nums = [3,4,5,2,1,7,3,4,7], k = 3

Output: 3

Explanation: Modify the array from [3,4,5,2,1,7,3,4,7] to [3,4,7,3,4,7,3,4,7].

Example 3:

Input: nums = [1,2,4,1,2,5,1,2,6], k = 3

Output: 3

Explanation: Modify the array from [1,2,4,1,2,5,1,2,6] to [1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3].

import java.util.Arrays;

    public int minChanges(int[] nums, int k) {
        int n = nums.length;
        int[][] fre = new int[k][1024];
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            fre[i % k][nums[i]]++;
        }

            Arrays.fill(dp2, max);
            int max2 = 0;
            for (int xor = 0; xor < 1024; xor++) {
                for (int al = i; al < n; al += k) {
                    dp2[xor] = Math.max(dp2[xor], dp[xor ^ nums[al]] + fre[i][nums[al]]);
                }
                max2 = Math.max(max2, dp2[xor]);
            }
            max = max2;
            dp = dp2;
        }
        return n - dp[0];
    }
