Finding the difference between two C++ Bitsets

To begin with, let’s create two bitset objects, bitset1 and bitset2, and initialize them with some binary values:

#include <iostream>
#include <bitset>

int main() {
    std::bitset<8> bitset1("01010101");
    std::bitset<8> bitset2("00110011");

    std::bitset<8> difference = bitset1 ^ bitset2;

    std::cout << "Difference between bitset1 and bitset2: " << difference << std::endl;

    return 0;
}

In the above code, we use the XOR operator (^) between bitset1 and bitset2 to find the difference. The XOR operator compares each bit of the two bitsets and returns 1 if the bits are different, and 0 if they are the same.

By performing the XOR operation on bitset1 and bitset2, we obtain a new bitset object called difference, which represents the difference between the two bitsets.

Finally, we print the result using cout to see the difference between bitset1 and bitset2.

When you run the code, the output should be:

Difference between bitset1 and bitset2: 01100110

In this example, the difference between bitset1 and bitset2 is 01100110.

This method of finding the difference between two bitset objects using the XOR operator can be applied to bitsets of any length. It provides an efficient way to compare and manipulate individual bits in C++.
