>>>I need to create algorithm (based on an integer number) that by applying some formula or equation to this number I can identify if the number belongs to group 1, 2, or 3 or any combination of them (e.g. 1 and 2, 1 and 3, 1 and 2 and 3, 2 and 3)

Yes, this is a follow up to the options thread from yesterday. But I can't seem to grasp how to apply BitTest() to this issue. I can't understand how the value of 7 by using BitTest() indicates that 7 belongs to all three groups? Could you please explain?
