In SQL, you can assign a value to a field of type bit using the following methods:

Assigning the value of 1 to a field of type bit, representing true or 1.

UPDATE tableName
SET bitField = 1
WHERE condition;

Assigning 0 to a field of type bit, signifies it as false or 0.

UPDATE tableName
SET bitField = 0
WHERE condition;

You can assign a value using TRUE or FALSE.

UPDATE tableName
SET bitField = TRUE
WHERE condition;

Values can be assigned using either the string ‘1’ or ‘0’.

UPDATE tableName
SET bitField = '1'
WHERE condition;

It is important to note that different database management systems may handle bit types differently, the above example is based on common SQL standard syntax.
