Boolean operation

And produces a value of true if and only if both of its operands are true.

Truth table

A B A and B
  false     false     false
  false   true   false
  true   false   false
  true   true   true


Bitwise operation

Bitwise and sets a bit to 1 if and only if all of the corresponding bits in its operands are 1.

Is power of two

function IsPowerOfTwo( const aValue : longint ): boolean;
var
  x : longint;
  b : boolean;
begin
  b := false;
  if aValue <> 0 then
    begin
      x := aValue - 1;
      x := x and aValue;
      if x = 0 then b := true;
    end;
  result := b;
end;

If you call IsPowerOfTwo(4) then you get true. If you call IsPowerOfTwo(5) then you get false .
