Lintcode: Update Bits
Given two 32-bit numbers, N and M, and two bit positions, i and j. Write a method to set all bits between i and j in N equal to M (e g , M becomes a substring of N located at i and starting at j)

Have you met this question in a real interview? Yes
Example
Given N=(10000000000)2, M=(10101)2, i=2, j=6 return N=(10001010100)2 Note
In the function, the numbers N and M will given in decimal, you should also return a decimal number. Challenge
Minimum number of operations? Clarification
You can assume that the bits j through i have enough space to fit all of M. That is, if M=10011, you can assume that there are at least 5 bits between j and i. You would not, for example, have j=3 and i=2, because M could not fully fit between bit 3 and bit 2.

以题中例子为例,做一个滤波器在i,j之间:11110000011,来跟N按位与,再把M左移i位,按位或

 class Solution {
/**
*@param n, m: Two integer
*@param i, j: Two bit positions
*return: An integer
*/
public int updateBits(int n, int m, int i, int j) {
// write your code here
int len = j-i+1;
int temp = 0;
for (int x=0; x<len; x++) {
temp |= 1<<x;
}
temp = ~(temp<<i);
return (n&temp) | (m<<i);
}
}
