basically i need to know how to count the 1's in example: 10110001
then output : 4 (for this example)
here is my code.. im trying to figure out how to count the 1's in the binary bytes outputted. Im thinking i may have to add a if statement that if bit = 1, add a count ??? help please thanks
Code:#include <cstdlib> #include <iostream> using namespace std; void binary(int); int main() { string name = ""; cout<< "Please enter your name: "; cin >> name; for ( int i=0; i<(int)name.size(); i++ ) { cout<< '\n' ; binary((int)name[i]); cout <<" "; } cout<<endl; system("PAUSE"); return EXIT_SUCCESS; } void binary(int number) { int remainder; if(number <= 1) { cout << number; return; } remainder = number%2; binary(number >> 1); cout << remainder; }
