Python 3 - Bitwise Operators Example
The following Bitwise operators are supported by Python language −
| Operator | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| & Binary AND | Operator copies a bit to the result if it exists in both operands | (a & b) (means 0000 1100) |
| | Binary OR | It copies a bit if it exists in either operand. | (a | b) = 61 (means 0011 1101) |
| ^ Binary XOR | It copies the bit if it is set in one operand but not both. | (a ^ b) = 49 (means 0011 0001) |
| ~ Binary Ones Complement | It is unary and has the effect of 'flipping' bits. | (~a ) = -61 (means 1100 0011 in 2's complement form due to a signed binary number. |
| << Binary Left Shift | The left operands value is moved left by the number of bits specified by the right operand. | a << 2 = 240 (means 1111 0000) |
| >> Binary Right Shift | The left operands value is moved right by the number of bits specified by the right operand. | a >> 2 = 15 (means 0000 1111) |
Example
#!/usr/bin/python3
a = 60 # 60 = 0011 1100
b = 13 # 13 = 0000 1101
print ('a=',a,':',bin(a),'b=',b,':',bin(b))
c = 0
c = a & b; # 12 = 0000 1100
print ("result of AND is ", c,':',bin(c))
c = a | b; # 61 = 0011 1101
print ("result of OR is ", c,':',bin(c))
c = a ^ b; # 49 = 0011 0001
print ("result of EXOR is ", c,':',bin(c))
c = ~a; # -61 = 1100 0011
print ("result of COMPLEMENT is ", c,':',bin(c))
c = a << 2; # 240 = 1111 0000
print ("result of LEFT SHIFT is ", c,':',bin(c))
c = a >> 2; # 15 = 0000 1111
print ("result of RIGHT SHIFT is ", c,':',bin(c))
Output
When you execute the above program it produces the following result −
a = 60 : 0b111100 b = 13 : 0b1101 result of AND is 12 : 0b1100 result of OR is 61 : 0b111101 result of EXOR is 49 : 0b110001 result of COMPLEMENT is -61 : -0b111101 result of LEFT SHIFT is 240 : 0b11110000 result of RIGHT SHIFT is 15 : 0b111
