Answer / ravi joshi
Bit fields can only be declared inside a structure or a
union, and allow you to specify some very small objects of a
given number of bits in length. Their usefulness is limited
and they aren't seen in many programs, but we'll deal with
them anyway.

Bit fields main intention is to reduce the memory
consumption.
Syntax:
------
struct
{
int a:1;
/*whatever may be the size of the int(compiler dependent),
only one bit shall be allocated for variable 'a'*/
}BITFIELDS;
Restictions:
------------
1. Accessing or printing address of bitfield variable is
not possible.
2.Array of bit fields, not possible.
3.A function cannot return a bit field variable.
