Bitset

[Kristyy_mariee]

Id like to determine the output of this code. I've never used bitset before.

#include <iostream>
 #include <bitset> 
 using namespace std; 

 int main() { 
 
 bitset<8> bits = 83;  
 cout << bits << "  ";
 cout << bits.to_ulong() << endl << endl;


   bits[0] = 0;   
 cout << bits << "  ";  
 cout << bits.to_ulong() << endl << endl;   

 bits[1] = 0;   
 cout << bits << "  ";  
 cout << bits.to_ulong() << endl << endl;   
 return 0;
 }

system("PAUSE");
return 0;

01010011  83

01010010  82

01010000  80

Here's the first set of bits vertically from left to right
0 -- value 128
1 -- value 64
0 -- value 32
1 -- value 16
0 -- value 8
0 -- value 4
1 -- value 2
1 -- value 1

So the total of the set bits is 1+2+16+64=83. Make sense?
