+# 5.1. Insertion
+
+> You're given 2 32-bit numbers, N and M, and two bit positions, i and j. Write a method to insert M into N such that M starts at bit j and ends at bit i.
+
+Assume that bits j through i have enough space to fit all of M. If M=10011, you can assume there are at least 5 bits between j and i.
+
+Example:
+
+* Input: N = 10000000000, M=10011, i=2, j=6
+* Output: N = 10001001100
+
+## Initial idea
+
+I guess we have to *update* bits starting at j (from N). Reusing the update function from README.md. Probably wrong but idea is to update all bits of M iteratively. O(M).
+
+```c++
+int insertBit(int N, int M, int j) {
+    String newM = Integer.toBinaryString(M);
+    for(size_t it = 0; it < newM.length; it++){
+        int value = int(it) ? 1 : 0;
+        int mask = ~(1 << j);
+        N += int((num & mask) | (value << j));
+    }
+    return N;
+}
+```
+
+Another idea could be to slice up N into [:j] and [i+1:]. and then slice_1 + M + slice_2. But this would have to be done in string mode, I think the focus here is doing it with int?
+
+## Hint 1
+
+> Focus first on clearing the appropriate bits
+
+This is included in the update function I used before.
+
+## Hint 2
+
+> To clear bits, create a 'bit mask' that looks like a series of 1s, then 0s, then 1s.
+
+`int mask = (1 << X) + (0 << (j-i+1)) + (1 << i);`
+
+How to get size of N? it says 32 bits but in the example there were 10.
+
+`N = int(N & mask) | (M << j)` or something.
+
+## Hint 3
+
+> To create the mask, create a bit mask for the left side, and another one for the right side. Then merge
+
+I think I've done that already.
+
+## Solution
+
+1. Clear bits j through i in N: mask
+2. Shift M so that it lines up with bits j through i
+3. Merge M and N
+
+```java
+int updateBits(int n, int m, int i, int j) {
+    if (i > j || i < 0 || j >= 32) return 0; // forgot to add this
+
+    /*
+    Create mask to clear bits i through j in n.
+    if i=2, and j=4, it should look like 11100011.
+    For simplicity we use 8 bits for the example
+    */
+    int allOnes = ~0;
+
+    // 11100000
+    int left = j < 31 ? (allOnes << (j+1) : 0;
+    // 00000011
+    int right = ((1 << i) - 1);
+
+    int mask = left | right;
+
+    // clear bits j through i and then put m in there
+    int n_cleared = n & mask;
+    int m_shifted = m << i;
+
+    return n_cleared | m_shifted;
+}
+```
