Reverse Bits in Range

You are given a non-negative integer 'n' and a range defined by two integers 'l' and 'r'. Your task is to reverse the bits of 'n' only in the specified range [l, r] (0-indexed from the right). Return the modified integer after the reversal. Input format: The first line contains the integer 'n', and the second line contains the integers 'l' and 'r' (0 <= l <= r < 32). Output format: A single integer which is the modified integer after reversing the bits in the range. Example: For input '29 1 3', binary '11101' become '10111' after reversing bits in position [1, 3], so the output should be '23'.
