Original Pull Request: https://github.com/TheAlgorithms/C/pull/1524

State: closed
Merged: No

Description of Change

Added a new algorithm to convert a binary number to its Gray code equivalent in the bit_manipulation directory.
The algorithm performs bitwise XOR between the binary number and its right-shifted version to generate the Gray code.
