About Bitwise Tools
Bitwise operations work on the individual bits of a value rather than its numeric value as a whole. This category runs AND, OR, XOR, and NOT on hex values at an explicit bit width, with aligned binary output so you can see exactly which bits changed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does bit width matter for bitwise operations?
A bitwise NOT on 0xF at 4-bit width gives 0x0, but the same NOT at 8-bit width gives 0xF0 — the result depends entirely on how many bits are involved.
What's XOR commonly used for?
Toggling specific bits, simple checksums, and swapping values without a temporary variable — it's one of the most widely used bitwise operations in low-level programming.
