Given binary string str of length N, the task is to find the count of subsequences of str which are divisible by 2. Leading zeros in a sub-sequence are allowed.


Examples:  

Input: str = "101" 
Output:
"0" and "10" are the only subsequences 
which are divisible by 2.
Input: str = "10010" 
Output: 22  

Naive approach: A naive approach will be to generate all possible sub-sequences and check if they are divisible by 2. The time complexity for this will be O(2N * N).


Efficient approach: It can be observed that any binary number is divisible by 2 only if it ends with a 0. Now, the task is to just count the number of subsequences ending with 0. So, for every index i such that str[i] = '0', find the number of subsequences ending at i. This value is equal to 2i (0-based indexing). Thus, the final answer will be equal to the summation of 2i for all i such that str[i] = '0'.


Below is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++
// C++ implementation of the approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

// Function to return the count
// of the required subsequences
int countSubSeq(string str, int len)
{
    // To store the final answer
    int ans = 0;

    // Multiplier
    int mul = 1;

    // Loop to find the answer
    for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {

        // Condition to update the answer
        if (str[i] == '0')
            ans += mul;
        // updating multiplier
        mul *= 2;
    }

    return ans;
}

// Driver code
int main()
{
    string str = "10010";
    int len = str.length();

    cout << countSubSeq(str, len);

    return 0;
}
Java
// Java implementation of the approach
class GFG
{

// Function to return the count
// of the required subsequences
static int countSubSeq(String str, int len)
{
    // To store the final answer
    int ans = 0;

    // Multiplier
    int mul = 1;

    // Loop to find the answer
    for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) 
    {

        // Condition to update the answer
        if (str.charAt(i) == '0')
            ans += mul;
            
        // updating multiplier
        mul *= 2;
    }
    return ans;
}

// Driver code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
    String str = "10010";
    int len = str.length();

    System.out.print(countSubSeq(str, len));
}
}

    }

    return ans;
}

// Driver code
var str = "10010";
var len = str.length;
document.write( countSubSeq(str, len));

</script> 

Output: 

22

Time Complexity: O(len), where len is the size of the given string
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
