    Problem

    There is an integer array perm that is a permutation of the first n positive integers, where n is always odd.

    It was encoded into another integer array encoded of length n - 1, such that encoded[i] = perm[i] XOR perm[i + 1]. For example, if perm = [1,3,2], then encoded = [2,1].

    Given the encoded array, return the original array perm. It is guaranteed that the answer exists and is unique.

      Example 1:

    Input: encoded = [3,1]
    Output: [1,2,3]
    Explanation: If perm = [1,2,3], then encoded = [1 XOR 2,2 XOR 3] = [3,1]
    

    Example 2:

    Input: encoded = [6,5,4,6]
    Output: [2,4,1,5,3]
    

      Constraints:

    Solution (Java)

    class Solution {
        public int[] decode(int[] encoded) {
            int[] decoded = new int[encoded.length + 1];
            for (int i = 1; i < encoded.length; i = i + 2) {
                decoded[0] = decoded[0] ^ encoded[i];
                decoded[0] = decoded[0] ^ i;
                decoded[0] = decoded[0] ^ i + 1;
            }
            decoded[0] = decoded[0] ^ decoded.length;
            for (int i = 1; i < decoded.length; i++) {
                decoded[i] = decoded[i - 1] ^ encoded[i - 1];
            }
            return decoded;
        }
    }
