Consider enumerate $$$i_a$$$ from $$$1$$$ to $$$n$$$.
For a fixed $$$i_a$$$,Bob has only two possible optimal options:choose $$$i_b=1 or i_a+1(if i_a \neq n)$$$.So Bob chooses $$$min(a_{i_a}+...+a_n-(b_1+...+b_{n-1}),a_{i_a}+...+a_{n-1}-(b_{i_a+1}+...+b_n))$$$.
Note $$$score_i$$$ as the answer for fixed $$$i_a=i$$$,the final answer is $$$max(score_i)$$$.

The key observation is super palindromes are strings of length $$$\geq 3$$$ with all numbers equal, or a string with alternating $$$0-1$$$ (and has odd length).
After that, we only need to enumerate $$$i$$$ from $$$i$$$ to $$$n$$$ and count super palindromes that ends with $$$i$$$.

Let $$$p$$$ be the lexicographically smallest balanced permutation of length $$$n$$$ and $$$x$$$ be the integer such that $$$1 \leq x < n$$$ and $$$p_1+p_2+⋯+p_x=p_{x+1}+p_{x+2}+⋯+p_n$$$. Let's take a look to the lexicographically smallest (not necessary balanced) permutation of length $$$n$$$, which is $$${1,2,\dots,n}$$$.
Let $$$m$$$ be the largest value such that $$$1+2+\dots+m \leq (m+1)+(m+2)+\dots+n$$$. Notice that since $$$m$$$ is as large as possible, $$$1+2+\dots+m+(m+1) > (m+2)+(m+3)+\dots+n$$$. Which means, $$$x < m+1$$$ for \textbf{any} balanced permutation of length $$$n$$$ (since no matter how you rearrange the permutation, $$$p_1+p_2+⋯+p_{m+1} \geq 1+2+\dots+m+(m+1)$$$). It is also worth noting that $$$m < n$$$. This will be useful later.
Since $$$p$$$ is the lexicographically smallest balanced permutation of length $$$n$$$, we want to greedily shove as much small numbers as possible to the prefix of $$$p$$$, then sort the prefix from smallest to largest. Notice that since $$$x < m+1$$$, it is possible that $$$x = m$$$ in the optimal solution and we can prove that it actually is.
Assume $$$p = {1,2,\dots,n}$$$ (in other words, $$$p_i = i$$$ for all $$$1 \leq i \leq n$$$). Focus on the $$$m$$$ first numbers in the permutation. Let $$$r = \frac{1+2+\dots+n}{2} - (1+2+\dots+m)$$$ (which means $$$r \leq 0$$$). Since $$$1+2+\dots+m+(m+1) > (m+2)+(m+3)+\dots+n$$$, $$$r < m+1$$$ which means $$$r \leq m$$$. This means that in order to make sure $$$p_1+p_2+⋯+p_m = p_{m+1}+p_{m+2}+⋯+p_n$$$, we can just add $$$1$$$ to all $$$p_j$$$ where $$$m-r+1 \leq j \leq m$$$ and $$$p_1+p_2+⋯+p_m$$$ will still be a possible prefix of the permutation, since $$$p_m \leq n$$$ and $$$p_1 < p_2 < \dots < p_m$$$ will still be satisfied after the changes (because $$$m < n$$$ and $$$p_1 < p_2 < \dots < p_{m-r} < p_{m-r+1} < \dots < p_m$$$). Now that we know $$$x = m$$$, how can we make $$$p$$$ as small lexicographically as possible?
Let's focus on the first $$$m$$$ numbers inside $$$p$$$. Set $$$p_i := i$$$ for all $$$1 \leq i \leq m$$$. We will modify this later. Now, since $$$r = \frac{1+2+\dots+n}{2} - (1+2+\dots+m)$$$, we need to add the value $$$r$$$ to the first $$$m$$$ numbers by spreading the addition. However, to make sure $$$p$$$ is as small as possible, we have to greedily add some value to some last numbers inside $$${p_1,p_2,\dots,p_m}$$$ such that the added value is $$$r$$$ and $$${p_1,p_2,\dots,p_m}$$$ is lexicographically smallest. In other words, we can do this procedure to construct the first $$$m$$$ numbers inside the permutation:
\begin{itemize} \item Set $$$p_i := i$$$ for all $$$1 \leq i \leq m$$$. \item Let $$$j = m$$$. While $$$r > 0$$$, add $$$\min(r,k-j)$$$ to $$$p_j$$$, decrease $$$r$$$ by $$$\min(r,k-j)$$$, and decrease $$$j$$$ by $$$1$$$ where $$$k$$$ is the maximum integer such that $$$k \leq n$$$ and $$$k$$$ \textbf{currently} does not appear inside $$${p_1,p_2,\dots,p_m}$$$. \end{itemize}
For the last $$$n-m$$$ numbers, notice that we can just fill these with all the numbers that are not used in the first $$$m$$$ numbers, since the sum of the numbers will automatically be equal to $$$p_1+p_2+\dots+p_m = \frac{1+2+\dots+n}{2}$$$. Do note that to make sure $$$p$$$ is as small as possible, $$$p_{m+1} < p_{m+2} < \dots < p_n$$$ need to be satisfied.
Bonus question: can you guess which $$$n$$$ values results in no possible balanced permutation?

Considering the prefix xor array of $$$a$$$, we found that the original operation was equivalent to swapping $$$prexor_ {i-1}, prexor_ {i} (1<i<n) $$$.
In fact,it is a variation of this.
Afterwards, the constraint of 'at most 2' is equivalent to having at most one continuous $$$1... 1$$$in $$$prexor$$$.
Because $$$prexor_n$$$cannot be changed,if $$$prexor_n=1$$$, we merge all $$$1$$$ into one suffix. Otherwise, we will merge all $$$1$$$s into the vicinity of the middle $$$1$$$.
First,read solution(Easy Version).
In this version,we need to divide all $$$1$$$ s into up to $$$\lfloor frac{k}{2} \rfloor$$$ groups and merge the $$$1$$$ s of each group in the optimal way.
Note $$$pos$$$ as positions of all $$$1$$$s,we can calculate the cost of merging $$$pos_l,...,pos_r$$$ in $$$O(1)$$$.Note it as $$$cost(l,r)$$$.
Now,we have a slmple $$$DP$$$:$$$dp_{i,j}=min_{0 \leq t <i}(dp_{t,j-1}+cost(t+1,i))$$$.It's $$$O(n^2k)$$$.How to optimize it?
We notice $$$cost(l+1,r+1)+cost(l,r) \leq cost(l+1,r)+cost(l,r+1)$$$ holds here.Due to the quadrilateral inequality, decision monotonicity holds.We can optimize it to $$$O(nk log n)$$$ using classic techniques (decision stack or divide and conquer).

Firstly, because of linearity of expectation, we can calculate answer for each bit independently.
Formula for expected value on segment for one bit is $$$\sum_{l\leq i\neq j\leq r} p_i(1-p_j)$$$, where $$$p_i$$$ is probability of $$$a_i$$$ being set to $$$1$$$.
To calculate this, we just need to maintain $$$\sum_{l\leq i\leq r} p_i$$$ and $$$\sum_{l\leq i\leq r} p_i(1-p_i)$$$ Let $$$po_i$$$ be $$$p_i$$$ before second operation and $$$b$$$ probability of bit changing ($$$\frac{1}{20}$$$).
Now to maintain $$$\sum_{l\leq i\leq r} p_i$$$ and $$$\sum_{l\leq i\leq r} p_i(1-p_i)$$$ we just need to apply linear function on segment, we can do it using segment tree. This is already fast enough for C++20 compiler. We can notice that $$$p_i(1-p_i)$$$ is same for all bits, so we can maintain only one segtree for it. With this optimization solution passes using other compilers.
The final complexity is $$$\mathcal{O}(n \log n \log A)$$$
