Given a number X, the task is to find the minimum number N such that the total set bits of all numbers from 1 to n is at least X. 

Examples: 

Input: x = 5 
Output: 4 
Set bits in 1-> 1
Set bits in 2-> 1
Set bits in 3-> 2 
Set bits in 4-> 1 
Hence first four numbers add upto 5 

Input: x = 20 
Output: 11 

Approach: Use binary search to get the minimum most number whose sum of bits till N is at least X. At the start, low is 0, and high is initialized according to the constraint. Check if the count of set bits is at least X, every time it is, change high to mid-1, else change it to mid+1. Every time we do high = mid-1, store the minimal of answer. 

Below is the implementation of the above approach:  

C++




// C++ implementation of the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
#define INF 99999
#define size 10
 
// Function to count sum of set bits
// of all numbers till N
int getSetBitsFromOneToN(int N)
{
    int two = 2, ans = 0;
    int n = N;
 
    while (n) {
        ans += (N / two) * (two >> 1);
 
        if ((N & (two - 1)) > (two >> 1) - 1)
            ans += (N & (two - 1)) - (two >> 1) + 1;
 
        two <<= 1;
        n >>= 1;
    }
    return ans;
}
 
// Function to find the minimum number
int findMinimum(int x)
{
    int low = 0, high = 100000;
 
    int ans = high;
 
    // Binary search for the lowest number
    while (low <= high) {
 
        // Find mid number
        int mid = (low + high) >> 1;
 
        // Check if it is atleast x
        if (getSetBitsFromOneToN(mid) >= x) {
            ans = min(ans, mid);
            high = mid - 1;
        }
        else
            low = mid + 1;

Time Complexity: O(log N * log N), the getSetBitsFromOneToN will take logN time as we are using the bitwise right shift in each traversal which is equivalent to floor division with 2 in each traversal so the cost will be 1+1/2+1/4+….+1/2N which is equivalent to logN. We are using binary search and each time we are calling getSetBitsFromOneToN function. Binary Search also takes logN time as we decrement each time by floor division of 2. So, the effective cost of the program will be O(logN*logN).
 Auxiliary Space: O(1), as we are not using any extra space.
