Number Complement

Given a positive integer, output its complement number. The complement strategy is to flip the bits of its binary representation.

Note: The given integer is guaranteed to fit within the range of a 32-bit signed integer. You could assume no leading zero bit in the integer’s binary representation.

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
Example 1:
Input: 5
Output: 2
Explanation: The binary representation of 5 is 101 (no leading zero bits), and its complement is 010. So you need to output 2.
Example 2:
Input: 1
Output: 0
Explanation: The binary representation of 1 is 1 (no leading zero bits), and its complement is 0. So you need to output 0.

            divisor /= 2;
            remainder = remainder == 1 ? 0 : 1;
            mStack.push(remainder);
        }
        mStack.push(0);
        int sum = 0;
