This is the code for any bit compiler...


#define TESTBIT 1 /*always better to represent like this instead of the code written above....

or

place a constant before test bit so that no changes can be made....*/

int no_of_1s=0;

for(i=0; i < (sizeof(int) * 8) ; i++)
{
if(given_no & (TESTBIT<<i)
no_of_1s++;

}

//for 16-bit no
//
int no_of_1s=0;
int testbit=1;
for(i=0;i<16;i++)
{
if(given_no&testbit)
no_of_1s++;
testbit = testbit<<1;
}
//now the variable no_of_1s is having the result
