Bitwise OR Operator Explained | Binary Operations in Programming | #shorts #programming #education

In this video, we explore the bitwise OR operator (|), a key operator for manipulating binary data in programming. We’ll go over how it works, including examples, to help you understand its role in setting bits and combining data efficiently. Perfect for anyone diving into bitwise operations, this tutorial provides a clear, beginner-friendly guide to using the OR operator effectively.

Bitwise OR:
The Bitwise OR operator (|) is used in programming to compare two binary numbers at the bit level. It performs an OR operation between each corresponding pair of bits in two operands. If at least one of the bits is 1, the resulting bit will be 1; if both bits are 0, the result will be 0.

Example: Let's take 5 and 3 and apply the bitwise OR operator:

5 in binary: 0101
3 in binary: 0011

Applying 5 | 3:
0101
| 0011
______
0111 (which is 7 in decimal)

So, 5 | 3 equals 7.

The bitwise OR operator is commonly used to set specific bits within binary data, combine flags, and perform low-level binary operations, especially in systems programming and embedded systems.
