Count Set Bits in an Integer

Code

#include <stdio.h>

int countSetBits(unsigned int n) {
    // Write your code here
    int count = 0;
    while(n>0){
        if(n&1){
            count++;
        }
        n >>= 1;
    }
    return count;
}

int main() {
    int n;
    scanf("%d", &n);
    printf("%d", countSetBits(n));
    return 0;
}

Solving Approach

Check the LSB and right shift until the number as long as the number is greater than 0.
