Turn off the rightmost set bit

Problem Definition:

Write a C function that unsets the rightmost set bit of an integer.

Solution:

Let the input number be n. n-1 would have all the bits flipped after the rightmost set bit (including the set bit). So, doing n&(n-1) would give us the required result.

Code:

/* unsets the rightmost set bit of n and returns the result */int fun(unsigned int n){  return n&(n-1);}
