我特别喜欢这个来自《财富》的例子:

#define BITCOUNT(x)    (((BX_(x)+(BX_(x)>>4)) & 0x0F0F0F0F) % 255)
#define BX_(x)         ((x) - (((x)>>1)&0x77777777)
                             - (((x)>>2)&0x33333333)
                             - (((x)>>3)&0x11111111))

我最喜欢它，因为它太漂亮了!

我觉得很无聊，于是对三种方法进行了十亿次迭代。编译器是gcc -O3。CPU就是第一代Macbook Pro里装的东西。

最快的是3.7秒:

static unsigned char wordbits[65536] = { bitcounts of ints between 0 and 65535 };
static int popcount( unsigned int i )
{
    return( wordbits[i&0xFFFF] + wordbits[i>>16] );
}

第二名是相同的代码，但查找的是4个字节而不是2个半字。这花了大约5.5秒。

第三名是“横向加法”法，用时8.6秒。

第四名是GCC的__builtin_popcount()，仅为11秒。

一次一个比特的计数方法要慢得多，我厌倦了等待它完成。

因此，如果您最关心的是性能，那么请使用第一种方法。如果您关心它，但又不想在上面花费64Kb的RAM，那么可以使用第二种方法。否则，请使用可读的(但速度较慢)一次一位的方法。

很难想象在什么情况下你会想要使用比特旋转方法。

编辑:这里也有类似的结果。

如果您恰好使用Java，则内置方法Integer。bitCount会这样做。

这是一个可移植的模块(ANSI-C)，它可以在任何架构上对每个算法进行基准测试。

你的CPU有9位字节?目前它实现了2个算法，K&R算法和一个字节查找表。查找表的平均速度比K&R算法快3倍。如果有人能想出办法使“黑客的喜悦”算法可移植，请随意添加它。
