Answer 3

Retag Tarek

That is a interesting one.

I have not dealt with bits much.

If you are willing try www.stackexchange.com

search bit manipulation. If you find nothing

try to skim this and ask your question.

Hope it helps.

Answer 5

if x,y are the number and a,b the bits position:

xnew=(x & (~(1<<a)))|(((y>>b)&1)<<a)

for ynew take the symetric formula

google c bitwise operator for more info
