Bitwise Operator allows you to do two different values at a binary level and tell you whether the two numbers intersect.

Example:
1 & 0 -- 0 (0000)
1 & 1 -- 1 (0001)
1 & 2 -- 0 (0010)
1 & 3 -- 1 (0011)
1 & 4 -- 0 (0100)
1 & 5 -- 1 (0101)
1 & 6 -- 0 (1010)

8 & 8 -- 8
-- 1000 & 1000 = 1000
8 & 16 -- 0
-- 1000 & 1 0000 = 0

47 & 16 -- 0
--10 1111 & 1 0000 = 0
63 & 16 -- 16
--11 1111 & 1 0000 = 1 0000

16 & 16 -- 16
-- 1 0000 & 1 0000 = 1 0000
17 & 16 -- 16
-- 1 0001 & 1 0000 = 1 0000
