26.5 Bit manipulation [bit]

26.5.6 Counting [bit.count]

In the following descriptions, let N denote numeric_­limits<T>​::​digits.
template<class T> constexpr int countl_zero(T x) noexcept;
Constraints: T is an unsigned integer type ([basic.fundamental]).
Returns: The number of consecutive 0 bits in the value of x, starting from the most significant bit.
[Note
:
Returns N if x == 0.
— end note
]
template<class T> constexpr int countl_one(T x) noexcept;
Constraints: T is an unsigned integer type ([basic.fundamental]).
Returns: The number of consecutive 1 bits in the value of x, starting from the most significant bit.
[Note
:
Returns N if x == numeric_­limits<T>​::​max().
— end note
]
template<class T> constexpr int countr_zero(T x) noexcept;
Constraints: T is an unsigned integer type ([basic.fundamental]).
Returns: The number of consecutive 0 bits in the value of x, starting from the least significant bit.
[Note
:
Returns N if x == 0.
— end note
]
template<class T> constexpr int countr_one(T x) noexcept;
Constraints: T is an unsigned integer type ([basic.fundamental]).

template<class T> constexpr int popcount(T x) noexcept;
Constraints: T is an unsigned integer type ([basic.fundamental]).
Returns: The number of 1 bits in the value of x.
