Although the examples here use 8-bit integers, Java integers are 32 bits. The highest bit is reserved for plus or minus sign. So you can set/unset 31 one-bit flags and a whole bunch of combination masks derived from the one-bit flag masks.

Mask (computing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In computer science, a mask is data that is used for bitwise operations. Using a mask, multiple bits in a byte, nibble, word (etc.) can be set either on, off or inverted from on to off (or vice vers...

In order to lump them together we need use bitmasks and bitwise operators to save space and time. While bitmasks and bitwise operators are nothing new to programmers with a computer science background, those of us coming from design backgrounds they can be a bit daunting.

It is however somewhat less transparent and a (tiny) little more computationally intensive, but then again, using exclusively powers of two as keys in order to be able to generate bit masks isn’t that transparent either :-p. If you really want your keys to remain under 32, you can always use a checks, triggers,

HP OpenVMS Systems ... ask the wizar ... When working with OpenVMS bit definition symbols, realize that there are both "V" bit offsets and "M" bit mask values.

Hi Folks I was looking for a way to test bit settings in a Hex value. i.e. Hex value 0x07 Bit mask 0x05 If at least all bits in mask are set in value then true. Using expr, expr 0x07 & 0x05, gives 5 which reading from the man page is as expected. ... Re: BIT masks;

Bit masks can be used to select out rows from bit columns (TFORMn = #X) in FITS files. To represent the mask, binary, octal, and hex formats are allowed: ... To construct the boolean expression using the mask as the boolean equal operator described above on a bit table column. For example, if you had a 7 bit column...
