DSA in Python – Bit Manipulation Basics | Swapping, Setting, Clearing, Toggling Bits – Part 65

10K views on YouTube

🚀 Welcome to Part 65 of Code & Debug’s DSA in Python Course!

In this lecture, we dive deeper into Bit Manipulation by solving basic problems that frequently appear in competitive programming and coding interviews.

📚 What you’ll learn in this video:
✅ Swapping two numbers using XOR (without a temporary variable)
✅ Check if the i-th bit is set (1) or not (0)
✅ Extract the value of the i-th bit
✅ Set the i-th bit to 1
✅ Clear the i-th bit (set it to 0)
✅ Toggle (flip) the i-th bit

💡 Why is this important?
Mastering these bit manipulation tricks is essential for writing optimized code, reducing time and space complexity, and solving bitwise problems efficiently. These techniques are commonly tested in FAANG coding interviews and competitive programming contests.
