Given a binary number, what is the fastest way of removing the lowest order bit? 01001001010 -> 01001001000 It would be used in code to iterate over the bits of a variable. Pseudo-code follows. while(bits != 0){ index = getIndexOfLowestOrderBit(bits); doSomething(index); removeLowestOrderBit(bits); } The possible languages I'...
If I have a 32-bit binary number and I want to replace the lower 16-bit of the binary number with a 16-bit number that I have and keep the upper 16-bit of that number to produce a new binary number.. how can I do this using simple bitwise operator? For example the 32-bit binary number is: 1010 0000 1011 1111 0100 1000 1010 1001 and ...
How can i write 'one bit' into a file stream or file structure each time? is it possible to write to a queue and then flush it ? is it possible with c# or java? this was needed when i try to implement an instance of Huffman codding. i can't write bits into files. so write them to a bitset and then (when compression was completed) write 8...
