Program Plan Intro

Bit-level operations in C:

  • One important characteristic of “C” is supporting bitwise Boolean operation.
  • The symbols used in “C” is same as the Boolean operation such are “~”, “&”, “|” and “^”.
    • Encode logical operations for “~”, “&”, “|” and “^” is “NOT”, “AND”, “OR”, and “EXCLUSIVE-OR” respectively.
    • These can be applied to any “integral” data type.

Example:

The example for applying Boolean operation in integral data type is shown below:

C ExpressionBinary expressionBinary resultHexadecimal result
~0x32~[0011 0010][1100 1101]0xCD
0x32 & 0x46[0011 0010]&   [0100 0110][0000 0010]0x02
0x12 | 0x26

[0001 0010]|

[0010 0110]

[0011 0110]0x36

Table for “~” Boolean operation:

The “~” operation means change the bit “1” to “0” and change the bit “0” to “1”.

  • It is also called as “NOT” operation.

Table for “&”Boolean operation:

This Boolean operation is used to “AND” the value of two bits vectors.

Table for “|”Boolean operation:

This Boolean operation is used to “OR” the value of two bits vectors.

|01

Table for “^”Boolean operation:

This Boolean operation is used to “EXCLUSIVE-OR” of two bits vectors.

Logical operations in C:

  • Logical operations in “C” are “&&”, “||” and “!” which are correspond to the operations of Boolean such as “AND”, “OR”, and “NOT”.
  • These operations return the result in either “True” or “False”.
    • That is returns “0” or “1”.
