试图为这个问题找到一个“终极”解决方案。下面的代码

针对的是C语言(不是c++)， 使用编译器内置生成有效的代码(CLZ或BSR指令)，如果编译器支持任何， 是便携式的(标准C和没有汇编)，除了内置，和 处理所有未定义的行为。

如果你用c++编写，你可以适当地调整代码。注意，c++ 20引入了std::bit_ceil，它做了完全相同的事情，只是在某些条件下行为可能是未定义的。

检查Bit Twiddling Hacks。你需要得到以2为底的对数，然后加上1。32位值的示例:

四舍五入到下一个2的最高次幂 Unsigned int v;//计算32位v的下一个最高次幂2 v -; V |= V >> 1; V |= V >> 2; V |= V >> 4; V |= V >> 8; V |= V >> 16; v + +;

延伸到其他宽度应该是明显的。

g++编译器提供了一个内置函数__builtin_clz，用于计算前导零:

所以我们可以这样做:

int nextPowerOfTwo(unsigned int x) {
  return 1 << sizeof(x)*8 - __builtin_clz(x);
}

int main () {
  std::cout << nextPowerOfTwo(7)  << std::endl;
  std::cout << nextPowerOfTwo(31) << std::endl;
  std::cout << nextPowerOfTwo(33) << std::endl;
  std::cout << nextPowerOfTwo(8)  << std::endl;
  std::cout << nextPowerOfTwo(91) << std::endl;
  
  return 0;
}

结果:

8
32
64
16
128

但请注意，对于x == 0， __builtin_clz return是未定义的。

next = pow(2, ceil(log(x)/log(2)));

这是通过找到你想要2乘以x的数字来实现的(取这个数字的对数，然后除以想要的底数的对数，详见维基百科)。然后把它四舍五入，得到最接近的整数幂。

这是一个比其他地方链接的按位方法更通用的方法(即更慢!)，但很好地了解数学，不是吗?

这是我用c语言的解决方案，希望能有所帮助!

int next_power_of_two(int n) {
    int i = 0;
    for (--n; n > 0; n >>= 1) {
        i++;
    }
    return 1 << i;
}

为了完整起见，这里是用标准C语言实现的浮点数。

double next_power_of_two(double value) {
    int exp;
    if(frexp(value, &exp) == 0.5) {
        // Omit this case to round precise powers of two up to the *next* power
        return value;
    }
    return ldexp(1.0, exp);
}
