Given an integer n
, return an array ans
of length n + 1
such that for each i
(0 <= i <= n
), ans[i]
*is the number of* 1
*'s in the binary representation of* i
.
Example 1:
Input: n = 2 Output: [0,1,1] Explanation: 0 --> 0 1 --> 1 2 --> 10
Example 2:
Input: n = 5 Output: [0,1,1,2,1,2] Explanation: 0 --> 0 1 --> 1 2 --> 10 3 --> 11 4 --> 100 5 --> 101
0 <= n <= 105
Follow up:
- It is very easy to come up with a solution with a runtime of
O(n log n)
. Can you do it in linear timeO(n)
and possibly in a single pass? - Can you do it without using any built-in function (i.e., like
__builtin_popcount
in C++)?
class Solution:
def countBits(self, n: int) -> List[int]:
# Create a list with n+1 elements, initialized to 0
result = [0] * (n + 1)
# Loop through each number from 1 to n (inclusive)
for i in range(1, n + 1):
# result[i >> 1] gives the number of set bits in i//2
# (i & 1) checks if i is odd; if odd, add 1 more set bit
result[i] = result[i >> 1] + (i & 1)
# Return the list of results
return result
O(n). We compute the number of set bits for each number from 0 to n exactly once.
O(n) for the output array.
