Following will show you bitwise And & , OR | and XOR ^ operations, And & will copy a bit to the result if it exists in both operands:
Code:
main()
  {
                                      /* Binary Values */
    unsigned int a = 60;	/* 60 = 0011 1100 */  
    unsigned int b = 13;	/* 13 = 0000 1101 */
    unsigned int c = 0;           

    c = a & b;                  /* 12 = 0000 1100 */ 
  }

OR | will copy a bit if it exists in eather operand:
Code:
main()
  {
                                      /* Binary Values */
    unsigned int a = 60;	/* 60 = 0011 1100 */  
    unsigned int b = 13;	/* 13 = 0000 1101 */
    unsigned int c = 0;           

    c = a | b;                  /* 61 = 0011 1101 */ 
  }

XOR ^ copies the bit if it is set in one operand (but not both)
Code:
main()
  {
                                        /* Binary Values */
    unsigned int a = 60;	/* 60 = 0011 1100 */  
    unsigned int b = 13;	/* 13 = 0000 1101 */
    unsigned int c = 0;           

    c = a ^ b;                  /* 49 = 0011 0001 */ 
  }

i want
i want to know the logic, of this example 15/3 = 5, or 16/3 = 5, using bitwise operators. like dividing two numbers using bitwise operators..
i hope u got it.
