JavaScript Math: Exercise-36 with Solution

Check If Number Is Power of Two

Write a JavaScript function to return powers of two values.

Test Data :
console.log(isPower_of_two(64));
true
console.log(isPower_of_two(94));
false

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

// Define a function named isPower_of_two that checks if a given number is a power of two.
function isPower_of_two(num)
{
    // Check if num is not zero and if num bitwise AND with (num - 1) equals zero.
    // This condition checks if num has only one bit set to 1, which indicates it is a power of two.
    return num && (num & (num - 1)) === 0;
}

// Output the result of checking if 64 is a power of two to the console.
console.log(isPower_of_two(64));  
// Output the result of checking if 94 is a power of two to the console.
console.log(isPower_of_two(94));

Output:

true
false
