#Scheme#

I polished the rules a bit to add to the challenge. The function doesn't care about the base of the number because it uses its own binary scale. I was inspired by the way analog to numeric conversion works. I just use plain recursion for this:

(define (find-ones n)
  (define (nbits n)
    (let nbits ([i 2])
      (if (< i n) (nbits (* i 2)) i)))
  (let f ([half (/ (nbits n) 2)] [i 0] [n n])
    (cond [(< half 2) i]
      [(< n i) (f (/ half 2) i (/ n 2))]
      [else (f (/ half 2) (+ i 1) (/ n 2))])))
