Given two integers, return their sum without using the + or - operators.
Note: While a simple solution using + works technically, this problem is meant to teach bitwise operations. Avoid using +, -, or built-in addition functions. Use bitwise XOR and AND operations instead.
Example
Example 1
Input: a = 5, b = 3
Output: 8
Constraints
- Standard integer range
- You may not use + or - operators
