**ALGORITHM(X)**
- **INPUT:** Integer \(X\)
- **OUTPUT:** Integer count
1. \( \text{count} = 0 \)
2. Convert \( X \) to bit string \( S \)
3. **while** \( S \neq 0 \)
- (A)
4. \( \text{count} = \text{count} + 1 \)
5. \( S = S \land (S - 1) \)
6. **return** count

- **Q1:** What is the time complexity of this algorithm in Theta (Θ) notation where the size of bit string \( S \) is \( n \)? Justify your answer.
- **Q2:** Suppose that the following loop is inserted in (A). Does it affect the complexity? If so, find the complexity in Theta (Θ) notation. Justify your answer.
```
for i = 0 to S.length - 1
print S[i]
i = i + 1
```
- **Q3:** What is the return value when \( X \) is 79?](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/d627e045-d503-4693-9754-e0a854927fd5/0e0d3b4f-1851-412a-a9a3-22072ea07ab9/h8mqarr_thumbnail.png)
