So the condiiton you are missing is this-

While operating for characters i=0 to i=(x-1), u directly set the character in string w as s[i] if (i+x)<n, what if (i+x)>=n, and the string s has a '1' at position i. In that case, you need to print (-1) as the answer.

Corrected code

Similarly for i =(n-x) to (n-1).

Hope you get it :)
