Bitwise Operators in Java Bitwise operators in Java are used to perform operations at the bit level. Since computers store numbers in binary format, bitwise operations allow for efficient manipulation of individual bits within an integer. These operators are particularly useful in areas like low-level programming, cryptography, and optimization of arithmetic operations. Types of Bitwise Operators in Java Java provides the following bitwise operators: AND (&) Operator (Performs Bitwise AND operation) OR (|) Operator (Performs Bitwise OR operation) XOR (^) Operator (Performs Bitwise XOR operation) Complement (~) Operator (Inverts all bits - one's complement) Let’s explore these operators with practical
