Spotify Reverse Binary Numbers Puzzle

This was my solution for the fun little puzzle from Spotify. The instructions were:

Your task will be to write a program for reversing numbers in binary. For instance, the binary representation of 13 is 1101, and reversing it gives 1011, which corresponds to number 11. Input The input contains a single line with an integer N, 1 ≤ N ≤ 1000000000. Output Output one line with one integer, the number we get by reversing the binary representation of N.
