Bit Counting program, lots of votes are in!

[Jim Becker]

	Thanks for all the responses to my bit counting query, there are
lots of great suggestions. I have _lots_ of responses, and will put together
the results shortly. This is the most response I have ever gotten, by far,
from anything on usenet! Now please stop! I'm swamped!

	The obvious deficiencies of the sample algorithm where well
pointed out and plucked, as well as some soultions that would not have
crossed my mind.  I will summarize the responses and post them in a
couple of days.

	Also, sorry that I also cross-posted to comp.std.c, I wasn't
clear on the use of that newsgroup and should not have posted there.
