Approach

Java

import java.util.BitSet;

public class BitSetandNot {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        BitSet bitSet = new BitSet(100);

        bitSet.set(1);
        bitSet.set(5);
        bitSet.set(6);
        bitSet.set(10);
        BitSet bitSet2 = new BitSet(100);

        bitSet2.set(5);
        bitSet2.set(1);
        bitSet2.set(9);
        bitSet2.set(8);

        bitSet.andNot(bitSet2);

        System.out.println(bitSet);
    }
}
