How to find hamming distance (number of bits in the same position that differs in two numbers) in Node.js

Answer 1

function hamming_distance(num1, num2) {
    let xr = num1 ^ num2;
    let result = 0;
    
    while (xr != 0) {
        result += xr & 1;
        xr = xr >> 1;
    }
    
    return result;
}

const num1 = 9;
const num2 = 14;

console.log(hamming_distance(num1, num2));




/*
run:
