using System;

class BitManipulation
{
    static void Main()
    {
        byte ch = 0;
        ch |= (byte)(1 << 7); // Set the 7th bit
        ch |= (byte)(1 << 3); // Set the 3rd bit

        string binary = Convert.ToString(ch, 2).PadLeft(8, '0');

        Console.WriteLine(binary);
        Console.WriteLine("Value: " + ch);
    }
}
