How do I manipulate bits in Python?

Question

In C I could, for example, zero out bit #10 in a 32 bit unsigned value like so:

unsigned long value = 0xdeadbeef;
value &= ~(1<<10);

Answer 1

Omit the 'unsigned long', and the semi-colons are not needed either:

value = 0xDEADBEEF
value &= ~(1<<10)
print value
"0x%08X" % value
