C : Bitwise Operators

Practical use of Bitwise Operator :

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    unsigned int a = 5;  // 0000 0101 in binary
    unsigned int b = 3;  // 0000 0011 in binary

    // Bitwise AND
    unsigned int result_and = a & b;
    printf("a & b = %u\n", result_and);

    // Bitwise OR
    unsigned int result_or = a | b;
    printf("a | b = %u\n", result_or);

    // Bitwise XOR
    unsigned int result_xor = a ^ b;
    printf("a ^ b = %u\n", result_xor);

    // Bitwise NOT
    unsigned int result_not_a = ~a;
    printf("~a = %u\n", result_not_a);

    // Left Shift
    unsigned int left_shift = a << 1;  // Shift a left by 1 bit
    printf("a << 1 = %u\n", left_shift);

    // Right Shift
    unsigned int right_shift = a >> 1;  // Shift a right by 1 bit
    printf("a >> 1 = %u\n", right_shift);

    return 0;
}
