Task 4 Get Binary 2: Implement the get_bin_2 function as directed in the comment above the function. If the directions are unclear, run the code, and look at the expected answer for a few inputs. For your solution, you should refer to your solution for Task 2 to get the general idea for Task 4, and you should use largest_po2_le in your solution (think about why this might be useful in terms of the binary representation). Make sure you build the string for 0 and negative numbers correctly. The same restrictions apply from Task 2. Submission: You need to submit your code for task 1,2,3 and 4.Make sure to submit them in a plaintext format. A .txt file extension is what we are looking for in your submissions.

// BEGIN STRINGBUILDER IMPLEMENTATION
// This code is a very rudimentary stringbuilder-like implementation
// To create a new stringbuilder, use the following line of code
//
// stringbuilder sb = new_sb();
//
// If you want to append a character to the stringbuilder, use the
// following line of code. Replace whatever character you want to
// append where the 'a' is.
//
// sb_append_char(sb, 'a');
//
// Though there are some other functions that might be useful to you,
// the driver code provided uses the functions, so there is no need
// to use them manually.

// Task 1
// For this function, you must return an integer holding the value
// x+1, however you may not use any constants or the symbol '+'
// anywhere in your solution. This means that
//
// return x - (-1);
//
// is not a valid soltion, because it uses the constant -1.
//
// Hint: Consider what internally happens when you do -x.

// Task 2
// For this function, you must build a string that when printed,
// will output the entire binary representation of the integer x,
// no matter how many bits an integer is. You may NOT use
// division (/) or mod (%) anywhere in your code, and should
// instead rely on bitwise operations to read the underlying binary
// representation of x.

// Task 3
// For this function, you must return the largest power of 2 that
// is less than or equal to x (which will be positive). You may
// not use multiplication or some sort of power function to do this,
// and should instead rely on bitwise operations and the underlying
// binary representation of x. If x is 0, then you should return 0.

// Task 4
// For this function, you must build a string that when printed,
// will output the binary representation of the integer x without
// leading zeroes, using a similar method as you did above. If x
// is negative, then the string should start with '-' and be
// followed by the binary for the positive version of the number.
// So if x is -5, then the string should be '-101', and
// if x is 9, then the string should be '1001'. The same
// restrictions from Task 2 apply.
//
// Hint: It may be useful to use the function from Task 3, and
// borrow concepts from Task 2.
