Using pow(10, i), which can cause floating-point precision errors. Using pow(10, i) returns a floating-point value, which is then implicitly converted to an integer during the addition.This can result in precision issues. Instead, you should use integer multiplication for precise operations. To ensure correct integer handling, we will replace pow(10, i) with ans = (bit * place) + ans where place is multiplied by 10 in each loop iteration.
