Bitwise AND compares each bit of two integers. A bit is set to 1 in the result only if both corresponding bits are 1; otherwise, it becomes 0.

Examples

1. 5 & 3

   • 5 = 0101
   • 3 = 0011
   • Result = 0001 = 1

2. 12 & 10

   • 12 = 1100
   • 10 = 1010
   • Result = 1000 = 8

3. 7 & 4

   • 7 = 0111
   • 4 = 0100
   • Result = 0100 = 4
