title: Are bitwise operators faster than + and - operator
body: <p>Please refer the <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9353929/get-the-absolute-value-of-a-number-in-javascript/11864942#11864942">Link</a>.</p>
  
  <p>It is suggested that the fastest way to calculate absolute value of a number is by using (relatively difficult) bitwise operator. </p>
  
  <p>I know bitwise operators are faster than division and Multiplication. But are they even faster than + and - operator?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks  </p>
