how do u find out the number of 1's in the binary
representation of a decimal number without converting it
into binary(i mean without dividing by 2 and finding out
the remainder)? three lines of c code s there it
seems...can anyone help

Answer / krishna

The above solutions will not work for negative numbers.
if a negative number is right shifted, the most significant bit will become 1. so the number never becomes zero.

The following will work for both +ve and -ve numbers.

#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
int count = 0;
int no = 3;
int x = 0x01;

if ( argc > 1) {
no = atoi(argv[1]);
}

while ( x != 0) {
if( no & x ) {
count++;
}
x <<= 1;
}

printf( "number: %d , no.of 1s in it: %d\n", no, count);
return 0;
}

Answer / jay

Well bitwise operators are one way to do it. But for
positive integers, I thought up another solution. I think
this could work for int n:

for(int i = 0, int count = 0; i < sizeOf(n) / 8.0; i++){
count += (n - 2^i > 0) ? 1 : 0;
}

Is that what you meant by 3 lines?
