On taking one’s complement of a number, all 1’s present in the number are changed to 0’s and all 0’s are changed to 1’s.
One’s complement operator is represented by the symbol ~.

Right Shift Operator:

The right shift operator is represented by >>. It needs two operands. It shifts each bit in its left operand to the right. The number of places the bits are shifted depends on the number following the operator.
Thus, ch >> 4 would shift all bits in ch four places to the right. Similarly, ch >> 3 would shift all bits three places to the right.
Note that as the bits are shifted to the right, blanks are created on the left. These blanks are always filled with zeros.

Left Shift Operator:

This is similar to the right shift operator, the only difference being that the bits are shifted to the left, and for each bit shifted, a 0 is added to the right of the number.
Thus, ch << 4 would shift all bits in ch four places to the left. Similarly, ch << 3 would shift all bits three places to the left.

Bitwise AND Operator:

This operator is represented as &.The & operator operates on two operands. While operating upon these two operands they are compared on a bit-by-bit basis. Hence both the operands must be of the same type (either char or int).

Bitwise OR Operator:

Another important bitwise operator is the OR operator which is represented as |.
