2’s complement for a given string using XOR

Given a binary string, task is to convert this string in to two’s complement with the help of XOR operator.

Examples: 

Input : 00000101
Output :11111011

Input : 10010
Output : 01110

We have discussed an approach in previous post to find 2’s complement

For 2’s complement, we first find one’s complement. We traverse the one’s complement starting from LSB (least significant bit), and look for 0. We flip all 1’s (change to 0) until we find a 0. Finally, we flip the found 0.

We traverse from the last bot and keep ignoring all 0s until we find a 1. We ignore first 1 also. Then we toggle all bits by doing XOR with 1.

C++




// C++ program to find 2's complement using XOR.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
string TwoscomplementbyXOR(string str)
{
    int n = str.length();
 
    // A flag used to find if a 1 bit is seen
    // or not.
    bool check_bit = 0;
 
    for (int i = n - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
        if (str[i] == '0' && check_bit == 0) {
            continue;
        }
        else {
 
            // xor operator is used to flip the 
            if (check_bit == 1)
                str[i] = (str[i] - '0') ^ 1 + '0';
 
            // bits after converting in to
            // ASCII values
            check_bit = 1;
        }
    }
 
    // if there is no 1 in the string so just add
    // 1 in starting of string and return
    if (check_bit == 0)
        return "1" + str;
    else
