+ * Generates a Gray code sequence for the given number of bits.
+ * @param {number} n - The number of bits in the Gray code sequence.
+ * @returns {number[]} - An array of Gray codes in binary format.
+ * @description
+ * Gray codes are binary sequences in which two successive values differ in only one bit.
+ * This function generates a Gray code sequence of length 2^n for the given number of bits.
+ *
+ * The algorithm follows these steps:
+ *
+ * 1. Initialize an array `grayCodes` to store the Gray codes. Start with [0, 1] for n = 1.
+ * 2. Iterate from 1 to n:
+ *    a. Calculate `highestBit` as 2^i, where `i` is the current iteration index.
+ *    b. Iterate in reverse order through the existing Gray codes:
+ *       - For each Gray code `code`, add `highestBit | code` to `grayCodes`.
+ *       - This operation flips a single bit in each existing code, creating new codes.
+ * 3. Return the `grayCodes` array containing the Gray codes in decimal representation.
+ *
+ *resources: [GFG](https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/generate-n-bit-gray-codes/)
+ * @example
+ * const n = 3;
+ * const grayCodes = generateGrayCodes(n);
+ * // grayCodes will be [0, 1, 3, 2, 6, 7, 5, 4] for n=3.
