Suppose n is a variable of the type Byte and we wish, to check whether its fourth bit (from right) is ON or OFF. Which of the following statements will do this correctly?

[A].	if ((n&16) == 16) Console.WriteLine("Fourth bit is ON");
[B].	if ((n&8) == 8) Console.WriteLine("Fourth bit is ON");
[C].	if ((n ! 8) == 8) Console.WriteLine("Fourth bit is ON");
[D].	if ((n ^ 8) == 8) Console.WriteLine("Fourth bit is ON");
[E].	if ((n ~ 8) == 8) Console. WriteLine("Fourth bit is ON");

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

byte myByte = 153; // In Binary = 10011001

byte n = 8; // In Binary = 00001000 
(Here 1 is the 4th bit from right)

Now perform logical AND operation (n & myByte)

 10011001
 00001000
---------
 00001000  Here result is other than 0, so evaluated to True.
---------

If the result is true, then we can understand that 4th bit is ON of the given data myByte.

Suppose n is a variable of the type Byte and we wish, to check whether its fourth bit (from right) is ON or OFF. Which of the following statements will do this correctly?
