  2. Bitwise operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operation

    In computer programming, a bitwise operation operates on a bit string, a bit array or a binary numeral (considered as a bit string) at the level of its individual bits.It is a fast and simple action, basic to the higher-level arithmetic operations and directly supported by the processor.

  3. Logical shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_shift

    In computer science, a logical shift is a bitwise operation that shifts all the bits of its operand. The two base variants are the logical left shift and the logical right shift . This is further modulated by the number of bit positions a given value shall be shifted, such as shift left by 1 or shift right by n .

  4. Bit manipulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_manipulation

    Source code that does bit manipulation makes use of the bitwise operations: AND, OR, XOR, NOT, and possibly other operations analogous to the boolean operators; there are also bit shifts and operations to count ones and zeros, find high and low one or zero, set, reset and test bits, extract and insert fields, mask and zero fields, gather and ...

  5. Josephus problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josephus_problem

    The easiest way to find the safe position is by using bitwise operators. In this approach, shifting the most-significant set bit of n to the least significant bit will return the safe position. [11] Input must be a positive integer. n = 1 0 1 0 0 1 n = 0 1 0 0 1 1

  6. Arithmetic shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_shift

    The formal definition of an arithmetic shift, from Federal Standard 1037C is that it is: . A shift, applied to the representation of a number in a fixed radix numeration system and in a fixed-point representation system, and in which only the characters representing the fixed-point part of the number are moved.

  7. XOR linked list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XOR_linked_list

    An XOR linked list is a type of data structure used in computer programming.It takes advantage of the bitwise XOR operation to decrease storage requirements for doubly linked lists by storing the composition of both addresses in one field.

  8. Exclusive or - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exclusive_or

    ^, the caret, has been used in several programming languages to denote the bitwise exclusive or operator, beginning with C [20] and also including C++, C#, D, Java, Perl, Ruby, PHP and Python.

  9. Bit field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_field

    A large number of languages support the shift operator (<<) where 1 << n aligns a single bit to the nth position. Most also support the use of the AND operator (&) to isolate the value of one or more bits. If the status-byte from a device is 0x67 and the 5th flag bit indicates data-ready. The mask-byte is 2^5 = 0x20.
