Which of these expressions will make the rightmost set bit zero in an input integer x?

CPP - Quiz(MCQ)

x = x | (x-1)

x = x & (x-1)

x = x | (x+1)

x = x & (x+2)

Correct Answer : x = x & (x-1)

Explanation : If x is odd the last bit will be 1 and last bit of x-1 will become 0. If x is even then last bit of x will be 0 and last bit of x-1 will become 1. In both case AND operation of 1 and 0 will be 0. Hence last bit of final x will be 0.
