[–] dang 11y ago ↗ This has been popular over the years, but hasn't had attention on HN in a while:https://hn.algolia.com/?q=bit+twiddling+hacks#!/story/foreve...We put 2005 on it, though the Internet Archive says there were earlier versions.
[–] viraptor 11y ago ↗ There's also a lot of 64-bit hacks on pages related to chess programming (8x8 boards). For example: https://chessprogramming.wikispaces.com/BitboardsAnd my faviourite bit hack question on SO: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14537831/isolate-specifi...
[–] fubarred 11y ago ↗ Neat. Also here's some other sources beyond the usual CS bookshelf suspects:http://www.hackersdelight.org/http://www.inwap.com/pdp10/hbaker/hakmem/hakmem.html(We recently had to grab the C standards in order to bust out some integer under/overflow macros that wouldn't be brittle.)
[–] drv 11y ago ↗ Another resource in the same vein (it links to this page, among others):http://aggregate.org/MAGIC/
[–] new299 11y ago ↗ It's an awesome page.I would guess one of the reasons it's here though is that it's almost required reading for Google interviews, #DetermineIfPowerOf2 is a particular favorite.
