First we input a number then convert this number into binary using bin() function and next remove first two character ‘0b’ of output string, next calculate the length of binary string.
Example
Input:200 Output:8
Explanation
Binary representation of 200 is 10010000
Algorithm
Step 1: input number. Step 2: convert number into its binary using bin() function. Step 3: remove first two characters ‘0b’ of output binary string because bin function appends ‘ob’ a prefix in output string. Step 4: then calculate the length of the binary string.
Example Code
# Python program to count total bits in a number def totalbits(n): binumber = bin(n)[2:] print("TOTAL BITS ::>",len(binumber)) # Driver program if __name__ == "__main__": n=int(input("Enter Number ::>")) totalbits(n)
Output
Enter Number ::>200 TOTAL BITS ::> 8
