[Solved] CSC 220 Lab 5-A program Bits.java

1. Write a program Bits.java that takes a command-line argument N and uses a while loop to compute the number of times you need to divide N by 2 until it is strictly less than 1. Print out an error message if the integer N is negative.

2. Design and implement an application named java that reads a string and two index values from the user, then swaps the characters with the specified index values, and save the resulting string in a variable. The program should have an input verification loop ensuring that the specified index values are within range, and a loop that asks users if they want to run the program again.
