Solution: Hamming Distance
Understand how to compute the Hamming distance by applying XOR to identify differing bits and using Brian Kernighan's algorithm to count set bits efficiently. This lesson helps you implement an optimized bitwise solution with constant space and linear time relative to set bits.

Statement
The Hamming distance between two integers is defined as the number of bit positions where the corresponding bits of the two numbers differ.
Given two integers x and y, your task is to find and return the Hamming distance between them.
Constraints:
x,y...
