      // assign values to bitset1
      bitset1.set(0);
      bitset1.set(1);
      bitset1.set(2);
      // assign values to bitset2
      bitset2.set(2);
      bitset2.set(4);
      bitset2.set(6);
    
    // print the sets
      System.out.println("Bitset1:" + bitset1);
      System.out.println("Bitset2:" + bitset2);

      // clear bitset1
      bitset1.clear();

      // clear bitset2
      bitset2.clear();

      // print new bitsets
      System.out.println(bitset1);
      System.out.println(bitset2);

   }
}
