How to write a program that computes the number of 鈥?鈥?bits in a given 32-bit integer number in VB?

It's something I'm doing for extra credits and I don't know how and where to startHow to write a program that computes the number of 鈥?鈥?bits in a given 32-bit integer number in VB?
I'll give you a c-sorta algorithm



Assume the number is in x

count = 0;

while (x != 0) {

if ((x mod 2) == 1) count++;

x = x / 2;

}

print count;
