Bitwise Operators

 

• Bitwise operator works on bits and perform bit-by-bit operation.
• The truth tables for &, |, ^ and ~ is as follows:

• The usual arithmetic conversions are performed on the operands, except with << and >>, in which case just integral promotion is performed on each operand.
• If the shift count is negative or is greater than or equal to the number of bits contained in the object being shifted, the result of the shift is undefined.
