meaning of this for loop

[radhikajan]

Hello
can some one tell me the meaning of this for loop

for (i=0;i<52;i++)
deck[i]= 0| [i/13] | ((i%13) << 2 ) | (! (i/26) << 6 );

i am not familiar with bit manipulations. so any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
radhika

ok it is creating an array with with the loop going from 0 to 52

and putting thta equation into english

deck[i]= 0 Or [i divided by 13] Or ((i Modulus 13) shift left 2 bits ) Or (not (i divided by 26) shift left 6 bit )

modulus in case you dont know returns the remander after dividing those 2 numbers.

even in plain english that is still pretty confusing..

now the brackets are 1/13 im not sure of. perhaps it converts to a byte..or something..Cant be certain. Im still learning all these operators myself.
