  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

    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 ...

  4. Mask (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    Then, the program renders the image pixel's bits by combining them with the background pixel's bits using the bitwise OR operation. This way, the image pixels are appropriately placed while keeping the background surrounding pixels preserved. The result is a perfect compound of the image over the background.

  5. 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.

  6. Conditional operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_operator

    and | are bitwise operators that occur in many programming languages. The major difference is that bitwise operations operate on the individual bits of a binary numeral, whereas conditional operators operate on logical operations. Additionally, expressions before and after a bitwise operator are always evaluated.

  7. Three-way comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-way_comparison

    In C, the functions strcmp and memcmp perform a three-way comparison between strings and memory buffers, respectively. They return a negative number when the first argument is lexicographically smaller than the second, zero when the arguments are equal, and a positive number otherwise.

  8. 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.

  9. Augmented assignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented_assignment

    Augmented assignment (or compound assignment) is the name given to certain assignment operators in certain programming languages (especially those derived from C).An augmented assignment is generally used to replace a statement where an operator takes a variable as one of its arguments and then assigns the result back to the same variable.
