+''' Swap odd and even bits in a smart way in a binary:
+    1) first for odds, take n and move the odd:
+        (a) Mask all odd bits with 10101010 (0xAA)
+        (b) shift by right by 1
+    2) do the same to ints with 01010101
+    3) merge
+    
+    >>> num = 0b11011101
+    >>> result = '0b1101110'
+    >>> swap_odd_even(num) == result
+    True
