Minimum One Bit Operations to Make Integers Zero

Explore how to apply bitwise manipulation to efficiently reduce an integer to zero by flipping specific bits under given conditions. Learn to determine the minimum number of operations required, deepening your understanding of bit-level problem solving and algorithm optimization in Python.

Statement

You are given an integer n. Your goal is to reduce it to 00 by repeatedly performing either of the following bit operations:

  • Flip the rightmost bit (bit at position 00) of n.

  • Flip the bit at position ii ...
