Power of Two

Given an integer, write a function to determine if it is a power of two.

Solution

位运算,一个数是2的幂,则它的二进制1的个数等于1

求一个数二进制的1的个数的方法是不断地n &= (n - 1),直到n为0

考虑以下两种情况:

  • n == 0, 此时n & (n - 1) == 0, 但不是2的幂
  • n=-2147483648,此时二进制1的个数也等于1,但它不是2的幂

综合可以得出:只要n <= 0, 就一定不是2的幂。

因此最后解决方案为:

bool isPowerOfTwo(int n)
{
	if (n <= 0)
		return false;
	return !(n & (n - 1));
}
