Question

1) The bitwise complement of zero is​

Answer 1

Answer:

The two's complement representation of 0 is 0000_0000 (in 8 bits). The two's complement of 0 is not 1111_1111. Never. You allow exactly half that range for negative numbers: -1 to -128 inclusive.

Answer 2

The bitwise complement of zero is one.

• Since the bitwise complement means conversion of every zero bit to one and one bit to zero.

• There are different types of bitwise operators. And, the bitwise complement is one of those operators.

• It is a unary operator which is denoted b '~'.
