This approach involves converting each number to its binary representation and counting the number of 1's in this binary form. We'll iterate through each number from 0 to n, convert the number to its binary form using standard built-in methods, and then count the number of 1's using another built-in method or implement a small function for counting.
Time Complexity: O(n log n) due to the division operations in each loop.
Space Complexity: O(n) for the result array.

2using namespace std;

4vector<int> countBits(int n) {
5 vector<int> res(n + 1, 0);
6 for (int i = 0; i <= n; ++i) {
7 res[i] = __builtin_popcount(i);
8 }
9 return res;
10}
This C++ solution uses the built-in function __builtin_popcount to count the number of 1's in each integer's binary form. We compute this for each number from 0 to n and store the result in a vector.
This optimized approach utilizes dynamic programming. The key observation is that for a number i, the number of 1's is equal to the number of 1's in i/2 plus i mod 2. This allows us to build the array progressively and with linear time complexity.
Time Complexity: O(n) due to a single loop.
Space Complexity: O(n) for the output array.
1def countBits(n):
2 res = [0] * (n + 1)
3 for i in range(1, n + 1):
4 res[i] = res[i >> 1] + (i & 1)
5 return res
This Python solution creates a list initialized to zero and uses a loop to fill each position using the count from the bit-shifted index plus the last bit.
