How do I implement bitwise operations in Python?

You can use operators like &, |, ^, ~, <<, and >> for bitwise operations in Python. Would you like examples?

Yes, can you show me how to use the AND operator?

Sure! The AND operator (&) compares each bit of two numbers. For example, 5 & 3 results in 1 because in binary, 5 is 101 and 3 is 011, and the AND operation gives 001.

What about the OR operator?

The OR operator (|) compares each bit and returns 1 if at least one of the bits is 1. For example, 5 | 3 results in 7 because 101 | 011 gives 111.

Can you explain the XOR operator?

Certainly! The XOR operator (^) returns 1 only if the bits are different. For example, 5 ^ 3 results in 6 because 101 ^ 011 gives 110.
