Minimum Flips to Make a OR b Equal to c

Given 3 positives numbers a, b and c. Return the minimum flips required in some bits of a and b to make ( a OR b == c ). (bitwise OR operation).
Flip operation consists of change any single bit 1 to 0 or change the bit 0 to 1 in their binary representation.

 

Example 1:

Input: a = 2, b = 6, c = 5
Output: 3
Explanation: After flips a = 1 , b = 4 , c = 5 such that (a OR b == c)
Example 2:

Input: a = 4, b = 2, c = 7
Output: 1

Example 3:

Input: a = 1, b = 2, c = 3
Output: 0

Solution:

class Solution {
    public int minFlips(int a, int b, int c) {
        int n = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < 32; i ++) {
            int aa = (a & (1 << i)) == 0 ? 0 : 1;
            int bb = (b & (1 << i)) == 0 ? 0 : 1;
            int cc = (c & (1 << i)) == 0 ? 0 : 1;
            if (cc == 0) {
                n += aa + bb;
            } else {
                if (aa == 0 && bb == 0) {
                    n += 1;
                }
            }
        }
        return n;
    }
