meaning of these symbol?

[newbie]

i'm a newbie for c programming.
Anyone can tell me what the meaning of '<<', '>>', '&' and ' | '?

[jamx]

These symbols are bitwise operators.

& = AND

| = OR

<< = left shift

= right shift

If you want to know what these operators do, i suggest you to read

thanks :)
how about this ' ->' ?

[jamx]

The -> symbol points to the member of some object/struct.
Like: myObject->value = 1;

No it doesn't. It dereferences a pointer to a struct (or union)
and then selects the appropriate member. To select the member of a
struct use the '.' operator.

This is no way to learn C. Get a good book on the subject.

If you have a decent textbook or tutorial, you can easily look up this
information. If you don't, you're not going to be able to learn the
language.

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.
