Bit Manipulation

Bit manipulation uses AND, OR, XOR, and shifts to pack flags into integers, test and toggle individual bits, and lean on tricks like XOR-cancellation to find a unique element in O(1) space. Interviews test whether you reach for a bitmask when it delivers a real constant-factor or memory win and skip it when it just muddies the logic. The skill is knowing the handful of patterns that pay off, not memorizing clever one-liners.
