Java: Displaying number in it's binary representation

Write a Java program that uses bitwise operations to:

1. generate and display all power-of-two numbers in the range +128 to -128, and
2. display an arbitrary user-input integer.

Implement the solution using one class. In your class, provide two methods - main and display.

Your main method should:
- Declare int number = 128;
- Include a while loop that loops while number is >= ­-128.
+ Call the display method, which prints the value of its passed-in number parameter.
+ If number is greater than zero, use the >>= operator to do one arithmetic right shift.
+ If number equals zero, use the ~ operator to complement it.
+ If number is less than zero, use the <<= operator to do one left shift.
- After the while loop, ask the user to input any number, and call the display method to print that number.

Your display(number) method should:
- Receive a number parameter.
- Print number's value and a tab.
- Assign to a local variable named mask the value 1 shifted left 31 times. This puts a 1 in bit 31 and zeros in all other bits.
- Use a for loop to step through all 32 bits, doing the following in each step:
+ Use a conditional operator whose condition is (mask & number != 0) to print either 1 or 0.
+ After every fourth bit, print a single space to make the output readable.

Your program should mimic the sample session given below.
