  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. Bit manipulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_manipulation

    A mask is data that is used for bitwise operations, particularly in a bit field. Using a mask, multiple bits in a Byte, nibble, word (etc.) can be set either on, off or inverted from on to off (or vice versa) in a single bitwise operation. More comprehensive applications of masking, when applied conditionally to operations, are termed predication.

  4. 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

  5. Logical shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_shift

    For example, in Java and JavaScript, the logical right shift operator is >>>, but the arithmetic right shift operator is >>. (Java has only one left shift operator (<<), because left shift via logic and arithmetic have the same effect.) The programming languages C, C++, and Go, however, have only one right shift operator, >>. Most C and C++ ...

  6. XOR cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XOR_cipher

    For example where denotes the exclusive disjunction (XOR) operation. [2] This operation is sometimes called modulus 2 addition (or subtraction, which is identical). [3] With this logic, a string of text can be encrypted by applying the bitwise XOR operator to every character using a given key.

  7. XOR swap algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XOR_swap_algorithm

    In computer programming, the exclusive or swap (sometimes shortened to XOR swap) is an algorithm that uses the exclusive or bitwise operation to swap the values of two variables without using the temporary variable which is normally required. The algorithm is primarily a novelty and a way of demonstrating properties of the exclusive or operation.

  8. Mask (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mask_(computing)

    In computer science, a mask or bitmask is data that is used for bitwise operations, particularly in a bit field.Using a mask, multiple bits in a byte, nibble, word, etc. can be set either on or off, or inverted from on to off (or vice versa) in a single bitwise operation.

  9. Trie - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trie

    A notable variant is the bitwise trie, which uses individual bits from fixed-length binary data (such as integers or memory addresses) as keys. History, etymology, and pronunciation [ edit ]
