Using a PIC, has anybody figured out a good
way to take a number from zero to seven (0 to 7)
and use it to generate the corresponding bit
mask (i.e., 00000001, 00000010, 00000100, etc.)?

This is bound to be an old problem solved long
ago by gurus more wiser than me.  Who has the
best code snipet for doing this operation?
