+## Description
+
+<!-- description:start -->
+
+<p>Given 3 positives numbers <code>a</code>, <code>b</code> and <code>c</code>. Return the minimum flips required in some bits of <code>a</code> and <code>b</code> to make (&nbsp;<code>a</code> OR <code>b</code> == <code>c</code>&nbsp;). (bitwise OR operation).<br />
+Flip operation&nbsp;consists of change&nbsp;<strong>any</strong>&nbsp;single bit 1 to 0 or change the bit 0 to 1&nbsp;in their binary representation.</p>

+### Solution 1: Bit Manipulation
+
+We can enumerate each bit of the binary representation of $a$, $b$, and $c$, denoted as $x$, $y$, and $z$ respectively. If the bitwise OR operation result of $x$ and $y$ is different from $z$, we then check if both $x$ and $y$ are $1$. If so, we need to flip twice, otherwise, we only need to flip once. We accumulate all the required flip times.
+
+The time complexity is $O(\log M)$, where $M$ is the maximum value of the numbers in the problem. The space complexity is $O(1)$.

+#### Python3
+
+```python
+class Solution:
+    def minFlips(self, a: int, b: int, c: int) -> int:
+        ans = 0
+        for i in range(32):
+            x, y, z = a >> i & 1, b >> i & 1, c >> i & 1
+            ans += x + y if z == 0 else int(x == 0 and y == 0)
+        return ans
+```
+
+#### Java
+
+```java
+class Solution {
+    public int minFlips(int a, int b, int c) {
+        int ans = 0;
+        for (int i = 0; i < 32; ++i) {
+            int x = a >> i & 1, y = b >> i & 1, z = c >> i & 1;
+            ans += z == 0 ? x + y : (x == 0 && y == 0 ? 1 : 0);
+        }
+        return ans;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+#### C++
+
+```cpp
+class Solution {
+public:
+    int minFlips(int a, int b, int c) {
+        int ans = 0;
+        for (int i = 0; i < 32; ++i) {
+            int x = a >> i & 1, y = b >> i & 1, z = c >> i & 1;
+            ans += z == 0 ? x + y : (x == 0 && y == 0 ? 1 : 0);
+        }
+        return ans;
+    }
