/**
* @file
* @brief Implementation to check whether a number is a power of 2 or not.
*
* @details
* This algorithm uses bit manipulation to check if a number is a power of 2 or
* not.
*
* ### Algorithm
* Let the input number be n, then the bitwise and between n and n-1 will let us
* know whether the number is power of 2 or not
*
* For Example,
* If N= 32 then N-1 is 31, if we perform bitwise and of these two numbers then
* the result will be zero, which indicates that it is the power of 2
* If N=23 then N-1 is 22, if we perform bitwise and of these two numbers then
* the result will not be zero , which indicates that it is not the power of 2
* \note This implementation is better than naive recursive or iterative
* approach.
