text: Maximize a given unsigned number number by swapping bits at it 's extreme positions. | JavaScript program to find maximum number by swapping extreme bits . ; Traverse bits from both extremes ; Obtaining i - th and j - th bits ; Swapping the bits if lesser significant is greater than higher significant bit and accordingly modifying the number ; Driver code
code: function findMax ( num ) { let num_copy = num ; let j = 4 * 8 - 1 ; let i = 0 ; while ( i < j ) { let m = ( num_copy >> i ) & 1 ; let n = ( num_copy >> j ) & 1 ; if ( m > n ) { let x = ( 1 << i 1 << j ) ; num = num ^ x ; } i ++ ; j -- ; } return num ; } let num = 4 ; document . write ( findMax ( num ) ) ;
