Output

# Understanding the Function This function: 1. Iterates over all possible 16-bit numbers (0 to 65535) 2. For each number, creates a 64-bit array by spreading bits into specific positions 3. Applies a cellular automaton rule: if a cell is 1 and all its neighbors (top, left, bottom, right) are 0, the cell becomes 0 4. Counts how many configurations remain unchanged after applying the rule once # Ways to Shorten 1. Simplify the array initialization by using a more direct bit mapping formula 2. Eliminate unnecessary variables and combine operations 3. Replace the nested loops with direct bit operations on specific positions 4. Use precomputed masks for the positions to check 5. Use bitwise operations to check neighbors more efficiently # Golf Implementation

Output

# Understanding the Function This function is counting how many of the 65,536 possible 16-bit numbers remain unchanged after a specific transformation. The transformation: 1. The 16-bit number is expanded into a 64-bit value representing an 8x8 grid 2. For each cell in the grid (excluding the border), if the cell is 1 AND all four adjacent neighbors (top, left, right, bottom) are 0, then the cell is set to 0 3. If the resulting grid matches the original grid, we increment the counter # Optimization Approach I'll make this shorter by: 1. Using shorter variable names 2. Simplifying the array initialization with a loop 3. Combining the nested loops and conditions 4. Using `long long` instead of `long long unsigned int` 5. Using bitwise operators more efficiently 6. Removing unnecessary parentheses where possible # Shortened Solution
