NAME

std::countr_one - std::countr_one

Synopsis

Defined in header <bit>
template< class T > (since C++20)
constexpr int countr_one( T x ) noexcept;

Returns the number of consecutive 1 bits in the value of x, starting from the least
significant bit ("right").

This overload participates in overload resolution only if T is an unsigned integer
type (that is, unsigned char, unsigned short, unsigned int, unsigned long, unsigned
long long, or an extended unsigned integer type).

Parameters

x - value of unsigned integer type

Return value

The number of consecutive 1 bits in the value of x, starting from the least
significant bit.

Notes

Feature-test macro: __cpp_lib_bitops

Example

// Run this code

#include <bit>
#include <bitset>
#include <cstdint>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
for (const std::uint8_t i : { 0, 0b11111111, 0b11111110, 0b11100011 }) {
std::cout << "countr_one( " << std::bitset<8>(i) << " ) = "
<< std::countr_one(i) << '\n';
}
}

Output:

countr_one( 00000000 ) = 0
countr_one( 11111111 ) = 8
countr_one( 11111110 ) = 0
countr_one( 11100011 ) = 2
