/*
 * you are given two integers 'n' and 'x'. you have to construct an array of
 * positive integers 'nums'. of size 'n' where for every '0 <= i < n - 1',
 * 'nums[i + 1]' is greater than 'nums[i]', and the result of the bitwise and
 * operation between all elements of 'nums' is 'x'. return the minimum possible
 * value of 'nums[n - 1]'
