HackerEarth Xsquare And Two Strings problem solution

In this HackerEarth Xsquare And Two Strings, problem-solution Xsquare loves to play with strings a lot. Today, he has two strings S1 and S2 both consisting of lower case alphabets. Square listed all subsequences of string S1 on a paper and all subsequences of string S2 on a separate paper. Square wants to know whether there exists a string that is listed on both papers.

Square thinks that this task is pretty boring and handed it to you. Please accomplish this task on his behalf.

    string s1,s2;
    cin >> t;
    while ( t-- ) {

        n1 = (int)s1.size(), n2 = (int)s2.size();
        mask1 = mask2 = 0;
        for ( int i = 0; i < n1; i++ ) mask1 = mask1 | (1<<(s1[i]-'a'));
        for ( int i = 0; i < n2; i++ ) mask2 = mask2 | (1<<(s2[i]-'a'));
        for ( char p = 'a'; p <= 'z'; p++ ) {
            if ( mask1 & (1<<(p-'a')) ) {
                if ( mask2 & (1<<(p-'a')) ) {
                    cout << p << endl;
                    cout << "Yes" << endl;
                    goto p1;
