Bit inversion

In computing and telecommunications, bit inversion means the changing of the state of a bit or binary number to the opposite state, i.e. the changing of a 0 bit to 1 or of a 1 bit to 0. It is often represented with a tilde (~). It also refers to the changing of a state representing a given bit to the opposite state.
