Given two positive integers L and R, the task is to count the total number of set bits in the binary representation of all the numbers from L to R

Examples:

Input: L = 3, R = 5 
Output:
Explanation: (3)10 = (11)2, (4)10 = (100)2, (5)10 = (101)2 
So, Total set bit in range 3 to 5 is 5

Input: L = 10, R = 15 
Output: 17

Method 1 – Naive Approach: The idea is to run a loop from L to R and sum the count of set bits in all numbers from L to R.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count set bits in x
unsigned int
countSetBitsUtil(unsigned int x)
{
    // Base Case
    if (x <= 0)
        return 0;
 
    // Recursive Call
    return ((x % 2 == 0 ? 0 : 1)
            + countSetBitsUtil(x / 2));
}
 
// Function that returns count of set bits
// present in all numbers from 1 to N
unsigned int countSetBits(unsigned int L,
                          unsigned int R)
{
    // Initialize the result
    int bitCount = 0;
 
    for (int i = L; i <= R; i++) {
        bitCount += countSetBitsUtil(i);
    }
 
    // Return the setbit count
    return bitCount;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Given L and R
    int L = 3, R = 5;
 
    // Function Call
    printf("Total set bit count is %d",
           countSetBits(L, R));
    return 0;
}


Java




// Java program for the above approach
class GFG{
 
// Function to count set bits in x
static int countSetBitsUtil(int x)
{
    // Base Case
    if (x <= 0)
        return 0;
 
    // Recursive Call
    return ((x % 2 == 0 ? 0 : 1) +
             countSetBitsUtil(x / 2));
}
 
// Function that returns count of set bits
// present in all numbers from 1 to N
static int countSetBits(int L, int R)
{
    // Initialize the result
    int bitCount = 0;
 
    for (int i = L; i <= R; i++)
    {
        bitCount += countSetBitsUtil(i);
    }
 
    // Return the setbit count
    return bitCount;
}
 
// Driver Code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
    // Given L and R
    int L = 3, R = 5;
 
    // Function Call
    System.out.printf("Total set bit count is %d",
                                 countSetBits(L, R));
}

// Function Call
document.write("Total set bit count is "+
       countSetBits(L, R));
 
// This code is contributed by noob2000.
</script>


Output: 

Total set bit count is 5

 

Time Complexity: O(N*Log N) 
Auxiliary Space: O(1)

Method 2 – Better Approach: The idea is to observe bits from the rightmost side at distance i then bits get inverted after 2i position in vertical sequence. 

Example: 

L = 3, R = 5
0 = 0000
1 = 0001
2 = 0010
3 = 0011
4 = 0100
5 = 0101

Observe the right most bit (i = 0) the bits get flipped after (20 = 1)
Observe the 3rd rightmost bit (i = 2) the bits get flipped after (22 = 4). 
Therefore, We can count bits in vertical fashion such that at i’th right most position bits will be get flipped after 2i iteration.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function that counts the set bits
// from 0 to N
int countSetBit(int n)
{
    int i = 0;
 
    // To store sum of set bits from 0 - N
    int ans = 0;
 
    // Until n >= to 2^i
    while ((1 << i) <= n) {
 
        // This k will get flipped after
        // 2^i iterations
        bool k = 0;
 
        // Change is iterator from 2^i to 1
        int change = 1 << i;
 
        // This will loop from 0 to n for
        // every bit position
        for (int j = 0; j <= n; j++) {
 
            ans += k;
 
            if (change == 1) {
 
                // When change = 1 flip the bit
                k = !k;
 
                // Again set change to 2^i
                change = 1 << i;
            }
            else {
                change--;
            }
        }
 
        // Increment the position
        i++;
    }
 
    return ans;
}
 
// Function that counts the set bit
// in the range (L, R)
int countSetBits(int L, int R)
{
 
    // Return the count
    return abs(countSetBit(R)
               - countSetBit(L - 1));
}
 
// Driver Code

{
    // Given L and R
    int L = 3, R = 5;

         << countSetBits(L, R) << endl;
    return 0;

Output: 

Total set bit count is 5

 

Time Complexity: O((L + R)*K), where K is the number of bits in L and R. 
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
 

Method 3 – Tricky If the input number is of form 2b – 1 e.g., 1, 3, 7, 15, … etc, the number of set bits is b * 2(b-1). This is because for all the numbers 0 to 2b – 1, if you complement and flip the list you end up with the same list (half the bits are set and half bits are unset).

If the number does not have all set bits, then let m is the position of the leftmost set bit. The number of set bits in that position is n – (1 << m) + 1. The remaining set bits are in two parts: 

  1. The bits in the (m – 1) positions down to the point where the leftmost bit becomes 0
  2. The 2(m – 1) numbers below that point, which is the closed form above.

For Example: N = 6 

0|0 0
0|0 1
0|1 0
0|1 1
-|--
1|0 0
1|0 1
1|1 0

From the above we have:  

  • The leftmost set bit is in position 2 (positions are considered starting from 0).
  • If we mask that off what remains is 2 (the “1 0” in the right part of the last row), So the number of bits in the 2nd position (the lower left box) is 3 (that is, 2 + 1).
  • The set bits from 0-3 (the upper right box above) is 2*2(2 – 1) = 4.
  • The box in the lower right is the remaining bits we haven’t yet counted and is the number of set bits for all the numbers up to 2 (the value of the last entry in the lower right box) which can be figured recursively.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
unsigned int countSetBit(unsigned int n);
 
// Returns position of leftmost set bit
// The rightmost position is taken as 0
unsigned int getLeftmostBit(int n)
{
    int m = 0;
    while (n > 1) {
        n = n >> 1;
        m++;
    }
    return m;
}
 
// Function that gives the position of
// previous leftmost set bit in n
unsigned int getNextLeftmostBit(int n, int m)
{
    unsigned int temp = 1 << m;
    while (n < temp) {
        temp = temp >> 1;
        m--;
    }
    return m;
}
 
// Function to count the set bits between
// the two numbers N and M
unsigned int _countSetBit(unsigned int n,
                          int m)
{
    // Base Case
    if (n == 0)
        return 0;
 
    // Get position of next leftmost set bit
    m = getNextLeftmostBit(n, m);
 
    // If n is of the form 2^x-1
    if (n == ((unsigned int)1 << (m + 1)) - 1)
        return (unsigned int)(m + 1) * (1 << m);
 
    // Update n for next recursive call
    n = n - (1 << m);
    return ((n + 1)
            + countSetBit(n)
            + m * (1 << (m - 1)));
}
 
// Function that returns count of set
// bits present in all numbers from 1 to n
unsigned int countSetBit(unsigned int n)
{
    // Get the position of leftmost set
    // bit in n
    int m = getLeftmostBit(n);
 
    // Use the position
    return _countSetBit(n, m);
}
 
// Function that counts the set bits
// between L and R
int countSetBits(int L, int R)
{
    return abs(countSetBit(R)
               - countSetBit(L - 1));

Method 4 – using setbit: In setbit method count one by one set bit of each number in range L to R using last bit, check to last bit and if it is set then increase the count and finally sum up over it.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count set bit in range
int countSetBits(int L, int R)
{
    // Count variable
    int count = 0;
 
    for (int i = L; i <= R; i++) {
 
        // Find the set bit in Nth number
        int n = i;
        while (n > 0) {
 
            // If last bit is set
            count += (n & 1);
 
            // Left sift by one bit
            n = n >> 1;
        }
    }
 
    // Return count
    return count;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Given Range L and R
    int L = 3, R = 5;
 
    // Function Call
    cout << "Total set Bit count is "
         << countSetBits(L, R);
 
    return 0;
}


Java




// Java program for the above approach
class GFG{
   
// Function to count set bit in range
static int countSetBits(int L, int R)
{
    // Count variable
    int count = 0;
  
    for (int i = L; i <= R; i++)
    {
  
        // Find the set bit in Nth number
        int n = i;
        while (n > 0)
        {
  
            // If last bit is set
            count += (n & 1);
  
            // Left sift by one bit
            n = n >> 1;
        }
    }
  
    // Return count
    return count;
}
  
// Driver Code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
    // Given Range L and R
    int L = 3, R = 5;
  
    // Function Call
    System.out.print("Total set Bit count is " +
                             countSetBits(L, R));
}

Method 5 – Using STL __builtin_popcount() function: STL provides an inbuilt function for counting set a bit in an integer, so here call that function for every number in range L to R and count set bits.

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count set bit in [L, R]
int countSetBits(int L, int R)
{
    // Variable for count set
    // bit in range
    int count = 0;
 
    // Count set bit for all
    // number in range
    for (int i = L; i <= R; i++) {
 
        // Use inbuilt function
        count += __builtin_popcount(i);
    }
 
    return count;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Given range L and R
    int L = 3, R = 5;
 
    // Function Call
    cout << "Total set bit count is "
         << countSetBits(L, R);
    return 0;
}


Java




// Java program for the above approach
class GFG{

    int count = 0;
 
    // Count set bit for all
    // number in range
    for (int i = L; i <= R; i++)
    {

        count += Integer.bitCount(i);
    }
 
    return count;
}
