Motivation to learn algorithms

Problem Statement

You are given a 2D matrix of size m x n, consisting of non-negative integers. You are also given an integer k.

The value of the coordinate (a, b) of the matrix is the XOR of all matrix[i][j] where 0 <= i <= a < m and 0 <= j <= b < n (0-indexed).

Find the kth largest value (1-indexed) of all the coordinates of matrix.

Example 1:

Input: matrix = [[5,2],[1,6]], k = 1
Output: 7
Explanation: The value of coordinate (0,1) is 5 XOR 2 = 7, which is the largest value.

Example 2:

Input: matrix = [[5,2],[1,6]], k = 2
Output: 5
Explanation: The value of coordinate (0,0) is 5 = 5…
