Bitwise XOR Operator (^) (JScript 5.6) 

  • Article

Performs a bitwise exclusive OR on two expressions.


result = expression1 ^ expression2

Arguments

  • result
    Any variable.
  • expression1
    Any expression.
  • expression2
    Any expression.

Remarks

The ^ operator looks at the binary representation of the values of two expressions and does a bitwise exclusive OR operation on them. The result of this operation behaves as follows:

0101   (expression1)

1100   (expression2)

----

1001   (result)

When one, and only one, of the expressions has a 1 in a digit, the result has a 1 in that digit. Otherwise, the result has a 0 in that digit.
