CSCI 223 Quiz 3

The most appropriate operator to use to set target bits in a byte is

the bitwise OR.

The most appropriate operator to use to flip target bits in a byte is

the bitwise XOR.

The most appropriate operator to use to clear target bits in a byte is

the bitwise AND.

if you need to flip a bit's current state, you should use

the XOR operator.

When applying the bitwise AND on two bits, the only way to get a unique result is if

both bits are set.

If you perform a right shift on a signed positive int

You'll get zeros pushed into the MSBs.

If you perform a right shift on an unsigned int

you'll get zeros pushed into the MSBs.

If you perform a right shift on a signed negative int

the result depends on the compiler.

If you shift a 32-bit integer to the left by 32 positions,

the result is zero.

If you perform a left shift of one position on a signed positive int

you'll effectively multiply the value by two.
