Description
This issue describes how to implement the bit manipulation concept exercise for the Swift track.
## Getting started
**Please please please read the docs before starting.** Posting PRs without reading these docs will be a lot more frustrating for you during the review cycle, and exhaust Exercism's maintainers' time. So, before diving into the implementation, please read the following documents:
- [The features of v3][docs-features-of-v3].
- [Rationale for v3][docs-rationale-for-v3].
- [What are concept exercises and how are they structured?][docs-concept-exercises]
Please also watch the following video:
- [The Anatomy of a Concept Exercise][anatomy-of-a-concept-exercise].
## Goal
This concept exercise should convey a basic understanding of how to perform bit-manipulation in Swift.
## Things to teach
- Bitwise AND
- Bitwise OR
- Bitwise NOT
- Bitwise XOR
- Bitwise Left and right shifts
## Things not to teach
- Operations that can be built out of bitwise operations
## Concepts
- `bit-manipulation`
## Prerequisites
- `basics`
- `numbers`
## Resources to refer to
### Hints
- [Swift Language Guide - Bitwise operators][bitwise-operators]
### After
- [Swift Language Guide - Bitwise operators][bitwise-operators]
## Representer
TBD
## Analyzer
TBD
## Implementing
See [the Swift track implementation guide][swift-implementing-concept-exercises] for guidance.
## Help
If you have any questions while implementing the exercise, please post the questions as comments in this issue.
