print(ee.Number(0).bitCount());       // [0]
print(ee.Number(1).bitCount());       // [1]
print(ee.Number(2).bitCount());       // [1]
print(ee.Number(3).bitCount());       // [2]
print(ee.Number(0xFFFF).bitCount());  // [16]

print(ee.Number(-1).bitCount());                       // [64]
print(ee.Number(-1, ee.PixelType.int8()).bitCount());  // [64]
print(ee.Number(-2).bitCount());                       // [63]
