Odd bits

CodeChefRating 2878Open on judge ↗

Find the minimum integer $K$ such that sum of bits present on odd positions in binary representation of all integers from $1$ to $K$ is greater than or equal to $N$. The bits are enumerated from left to right starting from the leftmost set bit i.e. the most significant bit. For example, binary representation of $77$ is **1**0**0**1**1**0**1**. Bits present on $1^{st}$, $3^{rd}$, $5^{th}$ and $7^{
