Write code to implement the following function:
/*
* Generate mask indicating leftmost 1 in x. Assume w=32.
* For example, 0xFF00 -> 0x8000, and 0x6600 — > 0x4000.
* If x = 0, then return 0.
*/
int leftmost_one(unsigned x);
Your function should follow the bit-level integer coding rules (page 128), except that you may assume that data type int has w = 32 bits.
Your code should contain a total of at most 15 arithmetic, bitwise, and logical operations.
Hint: First transform x into a bit

In the second blank, enter the array contents after one more partition of the left-hand subarray resulting from the first partition. In the third blank, enter the array contents after one more partition of the right-hand subarray resulting from the first partition. Print the numbers with a single space between them. Use the algorithm we covered in class, in which the first element of the subarray is the partition value. Question 1 options: Blank # 1 Blank # 2 Blank # 3arrow_forward1.
