Maria, an explorer in the digital world, needs a program to set the Nth bit of an integer. Write a program that takes an integer M and a position N as input, sets the Nth bit to 1, and displays the updated value.Example: If Maria inputs M = 18 and N = 3, the binary representation of 18 is 10010. After setting the 3rd bit (0-based) to 1, the updated value is 11010, which is 26. Input format :The input consists of two space-separated integers M and N, representing the number and the position, respectively.Output format :The output displays a single integer, representing the updated value of M after setting the Nth bit to 1.Refer to the sample output for the formatting specifications.Code constraints :In the given scenario, the test cases fall under the following constraints:10 ≤ M ≤ 10001 ≤ N ≤ 5

Solution

Here is a Python program that accomplishes the task:

def set_nth_bit(M, N):
    # Shift '1' N places to the left (0-based index)
    mask = 1 << N
    # Perform bitwise OR operation
    updated_M = M | mask
    return updated_M

# Test the function
M = 18
N = 3
print(set_nth_bit(M, N))

This program defines a function set_nth_bit that takes two arguments: M and N. It creates a mask by shifting '1' N places to the left. Then it performs a bitwise OR operation on M and the mask, which sets the Nth bit of M to 1. The updated value of M is then returned. The function is tested with M = 18 and N = 3, and the result is printed.

Write a program that takes in a positive integer as input, and outputs a string of 1's and 0's representing the integer in reverse binary. For an integer x, the algorithm is:As long as x is greater than 0 Output x % 2 (remainder is either 0 or 1) x = x / 2Note: The above algorithm outputs the 0's and 1's in reverse order.Ex: If the input is:6the output is:0116 in binary is 110; the algorithm outputs the bits in reverse.
