The java.math.BigInteger.and(BigInteger val) method returns a BigInteger whose value is bitwise-AND of two BigIntegers. This method returns a negative number if both of the BigIntegers are negative. The and() method applies bitwise-AND operation upon the current bigInteger and bigInteger passed as parameter.
Syntax:
public BigInteger and(BigInteger val)
Parameters: The method accepts one parameter val of BigInteger type and refers to the value to be AND’ed with the current BigInteger.
Return Value: The method returns the value of bitwise-AND of two BigIntegers.
Examples:
Input: value1 = 2300, value2 = 3400 Output: 2120 Explanation: Binary of 2300 = 100011111100 Binary of 3400 = 110101001000 AND of 100011111100 and 110101001000 = 100001001000 Decimal of 100001001000 = 2120. Input: value1 = 432045, value2 = 321076 Output: 296484
Below program is used to illustrate the and() method of BigInteger.
Java
/**Program Demonstrate and() method of BigInteger*/import java.math.*;public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Creates 2 BigInteger objects BigInteger biginteger = new BigInteger("2300"); BigInteger val = new BigInteger("3400"); // Call and() method to find this & val BigInteger biggerInteger = biginteger.and(val); String result = "Result of AND operation between " + biginteger + " and " + val + " is " + biggerInteger; // Print the result System.out.println(result); }} |
Output:
Result of AND operation between 2300 and 3400 is 2120
