Just write the number in binary, with the bits you're interested in
set to 1, and everything else 0:

... 876543210
... 000111100

>>> 0b000111100
60
>>> 1073741877 & 0b000111100
52

So this number does _not_ have all zeroes there. If it did, the result
would be zero. To look for some other pattern, just do the same thing
- suppose we want to find numbers where it's 1001, we just look for
the result to be 0b000100100, or 36.
