std::bitset::count(3)	      C++ Standard Libary	 std::bitset::count(3)

NAME
       std::bitset::count - std::bitset::count

Synopsis
	  std::size_t count() const;  (noexcept	since C++11)
				      (constexpr since C++23)

	  Returns the number of	bits that are set to true.

Parameters
	  (none)

Return value
	  Number of bits that are set to true.

Example
       // Run this code

	#include <bitset>
	#include <iostream>

	int main()
	{
	    std::bitset<8> b("00010010");
	    std::cout << "Initial value: " << b	<< '\n';

	    // Find the	first unset bit
	    std::size_t	idx = 0;
	    while (idx < b.size() && b.test(idx))
		++idx;

	    // Continue	setting	bits until half	the bitset is filled
	    while (idx < b.size() && b.count() < b.size() / 2)
	    {
		b.set(idx);
		std::cout << "Setting bit " << idx << ": " << b	<< '\n';
		while (idx < b.size() && b.test(idx))
		    ++idx;
	    }

	}

Output:
	Initial	value: 00010010
	Setting	bit 0: 00010011
	Setting	bit 2: 00010111
