You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums and an integer k.

\n\n

In one operation, you can pick any index i of nums such that 0 <= i < nums.length - 1 and replace nums[i] and nums[i + 1] with a single occurrence of nums[i] & nums[i + 1], where & represents the bitwise AND operator.

\n\n

Return the minimum possible value of the bitwise OR of the remaining elements of nums after applying at most k operations.

\n\n

Example 1:

\n\n
\nInput: nums = [3,5,3,2,7], k = 2\nOutput: 3\nExplanation: Let's do the following operations:\n1. Replace nums[0] and nums[1] with (nums[0] & nums[1]) so that nums becomes equal to [1,3,2,7].\n2. Replace nums[2] and nums[3] with (nums[2] & nums[3]) so that nums becomes equal to [1,3,2].\nThe bitwise-or of the final array is 3.\nIt can be shown that 3 is the minimum possible value of the bitwise OR of the remaining elements of nums after applying at most k operations.
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\nInput: nums = [7,3,15,14,2,8], k = 4\nOutput: 2\nExplanation: Let's do the following operations:\n1. Replace nums[0] and nums[1] with (nums[0] & nums[1]) so that nums becomes equal to [3,15,14,2,8]. \n2. Replace nums[0] and nums[1] with (nums[0] & nums[1]) so that nums becomes equal to [3,14,2,8].\n3. Replace nums[0] and nums[1] with (nums[0] & nums[1]) so that nums becomes equal to [2,2,8].\n4. Replace nums[1] and nums[2] with (nums[1] & nums[2]) so that nums becomes equal to [2,0].\nThe bitwise-or of the final array is 2.\nIt can be shown that 2 is the minimum possible value of the bitwise OR of the remaining elements of nums after applying at most k operations.\n
\n\n

Example 3:

\n\n
\nInput: nums = [10,7,10,3,9,14,9,4], k = 1\nOutput: 15\nExplanation: Without applying any operations, the bitwise-or of nums is 15.\nIt can be shown that 15 is the minimum possible value of the bitwise OR of the remaining elements of nums after applying at most k operations.\n
