# [693. Binary Number with Alternating Bits](https://leetcode.com/problems/binary-number-with-alternating-bits/) ## 题目 Given a positive integer, check whether it has alternating bits: namely, if two adjacent bits will always have different values. **Example 1:** Input: 5 Output: True Explanation: The binary representation of 5 is: 101 **Example 2:** Input: 7 Output: False Explanation: The binary representation of 7 is: 111. **Example 3:** Input: 11 Output: False Explanation: The binary representation of 11 is: 1011. **Example 4:** Input: 10 Output: True Explanation: The binary representation of 10 is: 1010. ## 题目大意 给定一个正整数,检查他是否为交替位二进制数:换句话说,就是他的二进制数相邻的两个位数永不相等。 ## 解题思路 - 判断一个数的二进制位相邻两个数是不相等的,即 `0101` 交叉间隔的,如果是,输出 true。这一题有多种做法,最简单的方法就是直接模拟。比较巧妙的方法是通过位运算,合理构造特殊数据进行位运算到达目的。`010101` 构造出 `101010` 两者相互 `&` 位运算以后就为 0,因为都“插空”了。
