Question

Hello,

I am trying to solve a problem that has to do with bit representation and it has certain limits, as to what kind of controls and the amount that I can use for this particular problem. These controls linclude:

Using if, do, while, for, switch, etc.

defining additional functions

calling any functions

using any form of casting

using operations such as &&, ||, -, or ?:

using any data type other than int

defining or using macros

My goal is to replace the "return" statement in each function with one or more lines of c code that implements the function.

here is my problem:

bitAnd - x&y using only ~ and |

example: bitAnd(6, 5) = 4

legal operations: ~ |

max operations: 8

int bitAnd(int x, int y)

//code implementation

return 2

I am confused as to how to look at this problem or how to start. Does anyone have any suggestions? Could you walk me through the problem?

Thanks, :-)
