bitwise-operators

Hi, I am pretty new to bitwise operators. Let's say I have 3 variables a, b and c, with these values in binary:

  a = 0001
  b = 0011
  c = 1011

Now, I want to perform a bitwise AND like this:

    a
AND b
AND c
--------
d = 0001

d &= a &= b &= c doesn't work (as I expected), but how can I do this? Thanks
