Solution in C++

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

typedef long long int lli;

#define pii pair<int,int>

int n,lol,trn=1;

string inp1,inp2,ne;

int main()

{

    ios::sync_with_stdio(0);

    cin.tie(0);cout.tie(0);

    cin>>inp1>>inp2;

    n=inp1.size();

    for(int i=0;i<n;i++)

    {

        if(inp1[i]==inp2[i])lol++,ne+=inp2[i];

        else if(trn%2)ne+=inp1[i],trn++;

        else ne+=inp2[i],trn++;

    }

    if( (n-lol)%2 )return cout<<"impossible",0;

    cout<<ne;

    return 0;

}
