    This was gonna be my response to OP so I’ll offer an alternative approach instead:

    typedef enum flags_e : unsigned char {
  F_1 = (1 << 0),
  F_2 = (1 << 1),
  F_3 = (1 << 2),
  F_4 = (1 << 3),
  F_5 = (1 << 4),
  F_6 = (1 << 5),
  F_7 = (1 << 6),
  F_8 = (1 << 7),
} Flags;

int main(void) {
  Flags f = F_1 | F_3 | F_5;
  if (f & F_1 && f & F_3) {
    // do F_1 and F_3 stuff
  }
}

      Why not if (f & (F_1 | F_3)) {? I use this all the time in embedded code.

      edit: never mind; you’re checking for both flags. I’d probably use (f & (F_1 | F_3)) == (F_1 | F_3) but that’s not much different than what you wrote.
