/**
* @file
* @brief Implementation to [count number of set bits of a number]
* (https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/count-set-bits-in-an-integer/) in an
* integer.
*
* @details
* We are given an integer number. We need to calculate the number of set bits
* in it.
*
* A binary number consists of two digits. They are 0 & 1. Digit 1 is known as
* set bit in computer terms.
* Worst Case Time Complexity: O(log n)
* Space complexity: O(1)
