initially compute xor of all the values from 0 to n in a variable Temp
so temp = 0^1^2........^n
let result is used to store the missing number
for each ith bit of missing number where i = 0-31 we can find it as
following
ith bit of result = (xor of all ith bits of values of array) xored with (ith

bit of temp)
