What is 2 raised to the 7th power?  This is a C statement to shift a 
value of "1" left by "7" bit positions.

Simply write a binary "1" followed by 7 "0"s.  Then convert the binary 
number into your favorite number base: octal, hex or decimal.

Next, use your calculator to raise 2 to the 7th  power.  See the 
relationships?
