Task 2: Decode XOR

Submitted by: [47]Mohammad Sajid Anwar
     __________________________________________________________________

   You are given an encoded array and an initial integer.

   Write a script to find the original array that produced the given
   encoded array. It was encoded such that encoded[i] = orig[i] XOR orig[i
   + 1].

Example 1

Input: @encoded = (1, 2, 3), $initial = 1
Output: (1, 0, 2, 1)

Encoded array created like below, if the original array was (1, 0, 2, 1)
$encoded[0] = (1 xor 0) = 1
$encoded[1] = (0 xor 2) = 2
$encoded[2] = (2 xor 1) = 3

Example 2

Input: @encoded = (6, 2, 7, 3), $initial = 4
Output: (4, 2, 0, 7, 4)
     __________________________________________________________________

   Last date to submit the solution 23:59 (UK Time) Sunday 16^th February
   2025.
