n this challenge, you will use logical bitwise operators. All data is stored in its binary representation. The logical operators, and C language, use to represent true and to represent false. The logical operators compare bits in two numbers and return true or false, or , for each bit compared.
Bitwise AND operator & The output of bitwise AND is 1 if the corresponding bits of two operands is 1. If either bit of an operand is 0, the result of corresponding bit is evaluated to 0. It is denoted by &.
Bitwise OR operator | The output of bitwise OR is 1 if at least one corresponding bit of two operands is 1. It is denoted by |.
Bitwise XOR (exclusive OR) operator ^ The result of bitwise XOR operator is 1 if the corresponding bits of two operands are opposite. It is denoted by .
For example, for integers 3 and 5,
3 = 00000011 (In Binary)
5 = 00000101 (In Binary)
AND operation OR operation XOR operation
00000011 00000011 00000011
& 00000101 | 00000101 ^ 00000101
____________
00000001 = 1 00000111 = 7 00000110 = 6
You will be given an integer , and a threshold, i1nnik$. Print the results of the and, or and exclusive or comparisons on separate lines, in that order.
Example
The results of the comparisons are below:
a b and or xor
1 2 0 3 3
1 3 1 3 2
2 3 2 3 1
For the and comparison, the maximum is . For the or comparison, none of the values is less than , so the maximum is . For the xor comparison, the maximum value less than is . The function should print:
2
0
2
Function Description
Complete the calculate_the_maximum function in the editor below.
calculate_the_maximum has the following parameters:
int n: the highest number to consider
int k: the result of a comparison must be lower than this number to be considered
Prints
Print the maximum values for the and, or and xor comparisons, each on a separate line.
Input Format
The only line contains space-separated integers, and .
