What are some examples of bitwise operations in Java?

Bitwise operations in Java include AND (&), OR (|), XOR (^), NOT (~), left shift (<<), and right shift (>>). Would you like examples of each?

Yes, please provide examples for each operation.

Sure! For AND: int result = a & b; For OR: int result = a | b; For XOR: int result = a ^ b; For NOT: int result = ~a; For left shift: int result = a << 2; For right shift: int result = a >> 2; Do you need further explanations?

Can you explain how the left shift operation works?

Certainly! The left shift operation (<<) shifts all bits of a number to the left by a specified number of positions, filling the rightmost bits with zeros. For example, 5 << 1 results in 10 because the binary representation of 5 (which is 101) becomes 1010.
