However, in Swift, this common mathematical functionality is built on top of an underlying operator system that is extensible and powerful.

In this recipe, we won’t be using any components from the previous recipes, so you can create a new playground for this recipe.
The operators we will explore are known as bitwise operators and are used to manipulate numerical bit representations.
