To toggle (flip the status of) the k-th item of the set

To toggle (flip the status of) the k-th item of a set in C++, you can follow these steps:

1. Declare and initialize a variable called set of the appropriate data type. This variable represents the set in which the k-th item needs to be toggled.

2. Use an appropriate method or function to determine the current status of the k-th item in the set.

3. Use an if statement or conditional statement to check the current status of the k-th item. If the item is currently set to "on" or "true", change its status to "off" or "false". If the item is currently set to "off" or "false", change its status to "on" or "true".

4. Update the status of the k-th item in the set using an appropriate method or function.

Here is an example code snippet that demonstrates how to toggle the k-th item of a set in C++:

#include <iostream>
#include <bitset>

int main() {
    int k = 3; // The index of the item to toggle
    std::bitset<8> set(0b00001000); // Example set with 8 items

    // Check the current status of the k-th item
    if (set.test(k)) {
        // If the item is currently set, toggle it to off
        set.reset(k);
    } else {
        // If the item is currently off, toggle it to on
        set.set(k);
    }

    std::cout << "New set: " << set << std::endl;

    return 0;
}

In this example, we use the std::bitset class to represent the set. The bitset class allows us to store a set of items as a sequence of bits. We initialize the set with a binary value of 00001000, which represents a set with 8 items, where the k-th item (in this case, k = 3) is initially set to "on" or "true". We then use the test() method to check the current status of the k-th item, and the set() and reset() methods to toggle its status. Finally, we print the updated set using std::cout.
