Bitwise Operations - Technical Details

Bitwise operations work on individual bits of integers. AND (&) returns 1 if both bits are 1. OR (|) returns 1 if either bit is 1. XOR (^) returns 1 if bits differ. NOT (~) flips all bits.

// Bitwise operations\n5 & 3  = 1     // AND: 101 & 011 = 001\n5 | 3  = 7     // OR:  101 | 011 = 111\n5 ^ 3  = 6     // XOR: 101 ^ 011 = 110\n~5     = -6    // NOT: inverts all bits
