The output is ffffffdf. in indiabix.com because its runs on 32 bit linux environment. If we run in turbo it will give ffff.

It varies from platform to platform.

Binary representation of 32bit - 0000000000100000.

1's - 1111111111011111.

So ffdf answer.

~ act like Not. 32 in binary 0000 0000 0010 0000. Convert to Not So 1111 1111 1101 1111. Answer in hexadecimal ffdf.

How 32 is 0000 0000 0010 0000 ?

I don't understand the above procedure can anyone lease explain me in brief I mean how to write the values of 32 in binary form?

32 16 8 4 2 1

2^5 2^4 2^3 2^2 2^1 2^0

0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1
f f d f

We want 32, So keep 1 at 32 all other 0.
For negation replace 0's with 1's.

32 = 2^5 = 2*2*2*2*2. So here 2^5 bit is 1 = 0000 0000 0010 0000.

But what they have asked is ~m so = 1111 1111 1101 1111.

~ 32 = (32 + 1) *-1.
- 33
33 = 0000 0000 0010 0001.
2complemnt is:

1111 1111 1101 1111
f f d f

So the answer is f f d f.

Yes, there is m=32=0000 0000 0010 0000;
~m(1s complement)= 1111 1111 1101 1111;
Thus answer : ffdf.
