Question 4 (2 points)

Consider the C statements below. Assume x has been assigned a value.

int mask = 0xFF000000; y = x ^ mask;

Which one of the following best describes the value computed for variable y?

Question 4 options:

	y contains the most significant byte of x complemented, with the rest of the bits unchanged
	y contains the most significant byte of x unchanged, with the rest of the bits 0
	y contains the most significant byte of x unchanged, with the rest of the bits 1
	y contains the most significant byte of x zeroed, with the rest of the bits unchanged
	none of these

Question 6 (2 points)

Determine x, as a logical value, after the statements below. See the hint for a note about 'logical'.

int a = 4, b = 3, x; x = !a;

Question 6 options:

	True
	False

Hide hint for Question 6
logical means we could use x in an if statement: if ( x ) so would x be considered True or False?
