bor (number, number)
bxor (number, number)
Arguments
- number
- Any number. Non-numbers are treated as zero.
Returns
An integer which is the result of the particular operation.
Description
The binary operations cast their arguments to integers, and then perform bitwise operations to produce an integer result.
- band bitwise AND
- bnot bitwise NOT (inversion of all bits in a 32-bit word)
- bor bitwise OR
- bxor bitwise exclusive OR (XOR)
Example
Gamma> band(7,5);
