C bit twiddling

Hints: • This project is almost impossible without the use of the shift left (<<) and shift right (>>) C operators. Remember that in C, the right shift operator, >>, behaves differently on signed and unsigned data types. • Constants in C are signed ints (32 bits long) by default. To get unsigned long constants, either use an “UL” suffix, or cast the constant to a long type, e.g. “1UL<<numShift” or ((floatx)1)<<numShift. • To make a mask field of 1 bits in bit positions 0-n, use the formula we proved as an inductive theorem when we talked about recursion: 2 (
