Biplex: an important useless operator

Question

Input

• A list of between 1 and 255 positive integers (inclusive), each in the range 1 to 2³² - 1 (inclusive).
• Your input format does not need to be identical to the test cases.
• Input without leading zeroes is required to be accepted.
• Input with leading zeroes is not required to be accepted.
• You may use whatever delimiter you wish between the integers.
• An integer may be represented by a string but the individual digits of a specific integer must be contiguous.
• You may choose to use any base for the input (including binary and unary), provided the output is also in that base.

Output

• A single integer.
• The output must have no leading zeroes.
• The output must be in the same base as the input.
• The output can be calculated in whatever way you wish but must match the result of the following calculation:

Calculating biplex

• The bits of a binary representation are numbered from the right starting from zero, so bit i is in the column representing 2ⁱ.
• The i ^th bitsum is the sum of the i ^th bits of the binary representations of each of the input numbers.
• The bitsum maximum is the highest value taken by the bitsums.
• The bitsum minimum is the lowest non-zero value taken by the bitsums.
• The i ^th digit of the binary representation of the output is:
  • 1 if the i ^th bitsum is equal to the bitsum maximum or the bitsum minimum.
  • 0 otherwise.

Worked example

This example uses binary for input and output.

Input:    100110
         1101110
         1100101
         _______
Bitsums: 2301321

Output:   101101

The bitsum maximum is 3 and the bitsum minimum is 1, so the output has 1s everywhere that the bitsum is 3 or 1, and 0s everywhere else.

---

Test cases

Test cases are in the form:

Input => Output

The test cases in binary:

[1] => 1
[10] => 10
[1, 10, 101] => 111
[11111111111111111111111111111111] => 11111111111111111111111111111111
[10010010010010010010010010010010, 10101010101010101010101010101010, 11011011011011011011011011011011] => 11100011100011100011100011100011
[10001011100010100110100101001001, 10110000111110010000111110111010, 1101110001101101011010010100101, 1010101010001011101001001010101] => 11 

The same test cases in decimal:

[1] => 1
[2] => 2
[1, 2, 5] => 7
[4294967295] => 4294967295
[2454267026, 2863311530, 3681400539] => 3817748707
[2341103945, 2969112506, 1849078949, 1430639189] => 3

Try it here!

Explanation

The crux of it is that the array feature is heavily used (a A) to store the bitsums, of which the minimum and maximum are found, then 1s and 0s are outputted appropriately, with dumping of leading 0s in two places.

$n                                      Read in whole input as integers
  I[(                             x]    Convert each number to binary
     d2%                                Get next least significant bit (modulo by 2)
        i1+0a                           Get current value in array for that position
             +                          Add
              i1+0A                     Put current value in array for that position
                   00ai`                Get first value of array (bitsum length)
                      i`                Greater than loop counter?
                        4&i00A          If not, put loop counter there
                              2:        Divide by 2
                                d)      If 0, exit loop

00a                Get first value of array (maximum length
   1+              Add one
     [i1+0a]       Get bitsum values from array and push on stack
            s      Sort
0(                 Push a 0 (for dump) and start a while loop -- dumps leading 0s
  x                Dump top of stack
   0g              Get bottom of stack
     d,            Duplicate and <not> it
       )           Exit loop when top of stack is non-zero (i.e., the minimum)
        r          Reverse stack (so now it's [min, max, <stuff>])
         I2-[x]    Dump everything else

00a1+[               ]    Get bitsum length and loop that many times
      i1+0a               Get bitsum value at current position
           d              Duplicate
            0c=           Copy front of stack and check for equality
               $r         Swap
                 1c=      Copy next-to-front of stack and check for equality
                    +     Add (so it's 1 if it's equal to min or max, 0 otherwise)

0gx0gx       Dump front two elements of stack (the min and max)
0(xd,)       Dump leading 0s
0            Push 0 for conversion to decimal
 I1-[   ]    For each bit...
     2*+     Multiply by 2 and add
N.           Output as integer and stop

How it works

                 &.    Dual. Apply the verb to the right, the verb to the left,
                       and finally the inverse of the verb to the right.
                   #:  Convert the input list from integer to base 2.
  (            @)      Define an adverb, i.e., an operator that takes a verb as
                       its left argument.
+/                     Call it with "reduce by sum". This calculates the sum of
                       the corresponding binary digits of all integers before
                       executing the remainder of the adverb's body, i.e, this:
             #~          Replicate the sum N a total of N times, i.e., turn
                         0 1 2 3 into 1 2 2 3 3 3. This eliminates zeroes.
         <./@            Calculate the minimum of the result.
     >./                 Calculate the maximum of the sums.
        ,                Append; wrap both extrema into a list.
   e.                    Check if each of the sums is in the list of extrema.
                         This yields 1 if yes and 0 if no.
                       (from &.) Convert from base 2 to integer.

Explanation

Still a work in progress, but a slow one. For lack of time, I've just copied the notes I made whilst writing this program, which will suffice for an explanation for now:

[Biplex Calculator]

[

Bitsum writing philosophy: 

Start with [0 255 255 255 ...].
The 255s will be markers that we can 'search' for to get back to the start.
After that, the next byte should be a 0, fairly permanently. (The first reference 0)
It is useful to have 0-bytes handy for general calculations. 
The next byte is where we will read the first digit of any binary number. (The first read)
The next byte holds the first bitsum.
Afterward, the next byte is 0, the following byte is the place
to read the second binary digit, the following byte is the second bitsum,
and so on.
I'll use the terminology nth reference 0, nth read, and nth bitsum to refer to
each part of the triplet of bytes.

The location three places after the final bitsum will be 255,
and the location three places after the final read will be 255.
We can move entire numbers by lining up these 255s after every binary number.

Answer 6

CJam, 27 bytes

q~2fbWf%:.+_0-$(\W>|fe=W%2b

Takes input as a base-10 CJam-style list. Test it here. Alternatively, run all test cases (the script discards the expected output and converts the input format as necessary).

Explanation

q~    e# Read and evaluate input.
2fb   e# Convert each number to base 2.
Wf%   e# Reverse each digit list, to align digits in case there are numbers with different 
      e# widths.
:.+   e# Add up the bit planes.
_0-   e# Make a copy and remove zeroes.
$     e# Sort the bit plane sums.
(\W>| e# Get the first and last element. We use set union instead of addition so that the
      e# resulting array will contain only one value if min = max.
fe=   e# For each element in the bit plane sums, count how often it appears in the min/max
      e# array, which is either 1 or 0.
W%    e# Reverse the digits again (to undo the initial reversing).
2b    e# Interpret as base-2 digits.

Haskell, 198 182 178 161 character

I'm still beginner at golfing. Only 80 reputation comes from answer.

m=map
v=reverse
(b:x)&(c:y)=(b+c):x&y
[]&a=a
b&_=b
l=(show=<<).v.(\a->m(fromEnum.(`elem`[maximum a,minimum$(replicate=<<id)=<<a]))a).foldl1(&).m(m(read.(:[])).v)

How does it work.

Instead of padding, I reverse the array then I add using user defined (&). I don't use foldl1(zipWith(+)) that is shorter because zipWith will delete the superflous item. Then I find the maximum and nonzero minimum, that also required user defined function. Then I match the item with the maximum and nonzero minimum, 1 if match, 0 if it doesn't match. Then we reverse and turn it into binary number.

                +/         Add the corresponding binary digits.
              S←           Save the sums in S.
           0~⍨             Remove 0's.
    (⌈/,⌊/)                Apply minimum (⌊/), maximum (⌈/) and concatenate.

This version takes input from a popup window, with the numbers being input in the form "{x,y,z,...}", (no quotes).

FromDigits[#/.{Max[#]->1,Min[#/.{0->Nothing}]->1,_Integer->0},2]&@Total[PadLeft[IntegerDigits[#,2],33]&/@Input[]]

Input:

Output:

Takes input in a dynamic Manipulate as a string of the form "{x,y,z}" with x, y, and z being base 10 integers (with or without leading zeroes). The output is also in base 10.

Manipulate[FromDigits[#/.{Max[#]->1,Min[#/.{0->Nothing}]->1,_Integer->0},2]&@Total[PadLeft[IntegerDigits[#,2],33]&/@ToExpression@i],{i,"{1}"}]

There are other ways to input this in a way that would save on character counts, but I think this solution is an elegant use of a dynamic GUI that performs the computation

If you want to run this in the cloud, we can use CloudDeploy:

o=CloudDeploy[FormPage[{"i"->"String"},(FromDigits[#/.{Max[#]->1,Min[#/.{0->Nothing}]->1,_Integer->0},2]&@Total[PadLeft[IntegerDigits[#,2],33]&/@ToExpression@#i])&]];SetOptions[o,Permissions->{All->{"Read","Execute"},"Owner"->{"Read","Write","Execute"}}];o

The Cloud deploy brings the character count up to 256 however...

The input to the FormPage is also a string of the form "{x,y,z}" with x, y, and z being base 10 integers.

I cloud-deployed this myself and you can try it out at https://www.wolframcloud.com/objects/97b512df-64f8-4cae-979b-dba6d9622781

C#, 255

A complete program, input as command line arguments - space separated - in decimal.

using System.Linq;class P{static void Main(string[]l){var n=new uint[32];uint i,r=0,b;foreach(var v in l)for(i=0,b=uint.Parse(v);b!=0;b/=2)n[i++]+=b&1;b=1;foreach(var v in n){r+=(v==n.Max()|v== n.Min(x=>x>0?x:n.Max()))?b:0;b+=b;}System.Console.Write(r);}}

More readable:

using System.Linq;

class P
{
    static void Main(string[] l)
    {
        var n = new uint[32];
        uint i, r = 0, b;

        foreach (var v in l)
            for (i = 0, b = uint.Parse(v); b != 0; b /= 2) n[i++] += b & 1;
        b = 1;
        foreach (var v in n)
        {
            r += (v == n.Max() | v == n.Min(x => x > 0 ? x : n.Max())) ? b : 0;
            b += b;
        }
        System.Console.Write(r);
    }
}

def f l;a=[];32.times{|i|a[i]=0;l.each{|n|;a[i]+=n[i]}};a.map{|b|a.reject{|c|c==0}.minmax.index(b)?1:0}.reverse.join.to_i 2;end

Takes an array as input.

Answer 21

C++, 192 bytes

Accepts input a 32 bit unsigned integer array, and a count of items in that array.

typedef unsigned long U;U b(U*a,int c){U x[32],t,i,j,M=0,m=c,r=0;for(i=0;i<32;x[i++]=t,m=t&&m>t?t:m,M=M<t?t:M)for(t=j=0;j<c;)t+=a[j++]>>i&1;for(i=0;i<32;++i)r|=(x[i]==m||x[i]==M)<<i;return r;}

Ungolfed :

unsigned long b(unsigned long*a, int c){
    unsigned long x[32],t,i,j,M=0,m=c,r=0;
    for(i=0;i<32;x[i++]=t){
        m = (t && m > t)?t:m;
        M = M < t ? t:M;
        for(t=j=0;j<c;){
            t+=a[j++]>>i&1;
        }
    }
    for(i=0;i<32;++i)
        r|=(x[i]==m||x[i]==M)<<i;
    return r;
}

CoffeeScript, 194 bytes

Takes input as coma separated binary numbers, outputs in binary.

a=(s.split('').reverse()for s in prompt().split(','))
for i in b=[0..31]
 b[i]=0
 b[i]+=+c[31-i]||0for c in a
m=1/M=0
for d in b
 M=d if d>M;m=d if m>d&&d
alert +(+(d in[m,M])for d in b).join ''
