Bitwise Operators

& AND| Inclusive OR^ Exclusive OR<< Shift Left>> Shift Right~ One's compliment

Operands are variables or expressions which are used in operators to evaluate the expression.


Combination of operands and operators form an Expression.


For instance a = b + c; denote an expression in which there are 3 operands a, b, c and two operator  + and =.


The association of expressions and keywords is called Statements.
