Python Bitwise Operators:

Bitwise operator works on bits and performs bit by bit operation.

Assume if a=60; and b = 13; Now in binary format they will be as follows:

a = 0011 1100

b = 0000 1101

---------------------------------

a&b = 0000 1100

a|b = 0011 1101

a^b = 0011 0001

~a = 1100 0011

Operator	Description	Example
&	Binary AND Operator copies a bit to the result if it exists in both operands.	(a & b) will give 12 which is  0000 1100
|	Binary OR Operator copies a bit if it exists in either operand.	(a | b) will give 61 which is 0011 1101
^	Binary XOR Operator copies the bit if it is set in one operand but not both.	(a ^ b) will give 49 which is  0011 0001
~	Binary Ones Complement operator is unary and has the effect of ‘flipping’ bits.	(~a) will give -60 which is 1100 0011
<<	Binary Left Shift Operator. The left operands value is moved left by the number of bits specified by the right operand.	a << 2 will give 240 which is 1111 0000
>>	Binary Right Shift Operator. The left operands value is moved right by the number of bits specified by the right operand.	a >> 2 will give 15 which is  0000 1111
