Description

You are given two arrays nums and andValues of length n and m respectively.

The value of an array is equal to the last element of that array.

You have to divide nums into m disjoint contiguous subarrays such that for the ith subarray [li, ri], the bitwise AND of the subarray elements is equal to andValues[i], in other words, nums[li] & nums[li + 1] & ... & nums[ri] == andValues[i] for all 1 <= i <= m, where & represents the bitwise AND operator.

Return the minimum possible sum of the values of the m subarrays nums is divided into. If it is not possible to divide nums into m subarrays satisfying these conditions, return -1.
