11111000 becomes 00000000 when the five most important bits of an 8-bit number are reversed.

When you flip a bit, you change a binary digit's or bit's value to the opposite.
We are learning how to directly manipulate bits using bitwise operators.
Although the result is simpler to understand in binary than it is in decimal, it could be useful to demonstrate both for comparison.
Bit manipulation and algorithmic manipulation of binary digits are both examples of bit flipping in computing (bits) Bitwise operation NOT, which changes a bit's state from 0 to 1 and vice versa, performs logical negation to a single bit or to each of numerous bits.
