This does not explain though why it is allowed to say int test; in stdafx.h (which is included also in a lot of places)

This function that I wrote last year find the bigger long, greater than the input value, that is a power of 2.

...let me know how have a faster function.

unsigned long Next2Power(unsigned long x)
{
    x--;
    x |= x >> 1;
    x |= x >> 2;
    x |= x >> 4;
    x |= x >> 8;
    x |= x >> 16;
    x++;

    return x;

double val = 0.0;
val = log10(y) / log10(2.0);

//Check that 'val' is pure int (Here you use ur own code is u optimize)
int val2 = int(val);

if (val == val2) 
     // y is power of 2
else
     // y is not power of 2

my suggesion is not wrong for it.

2^x = y
log 2^x = log y
x log 2 = log y

x = log y /log 2
