You are given two 0-indexed binary strings s and target of the same length n. You can do the following operation on s any number of times:

\n\n\n\n

For example, if s = "0110", you can choose i = 0 and j = 2, then simultaneously replace s[0] with (s[0] OR s[2] = 0 OR 1 = 1), and s[2] with (s[0] XOR s[2] = 0 XOR 1 = 1), so we will have s = "1110".

\n\n

Return true if you can make the string s equal to target, or false otherwise.

\n

Example 1:

\n\n
\nInput: s = "1010", target = "0110"\nOutput: true\nExplanation: We can do the following operations:\n- Choose i = 2 and j = 0. We have now s = "0010".\n- Choose i = 2 and j = 1. We have now s = "0110".\nSince we can make s equal to target, we return true.\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\nInput: s = "11", target = "00"\nOutput: false\nExplanation: It is not possible to make s equal to target with any number of operations.\n
