7.4.16 Bitwise XOR Operator (^)

Used to perform a bitwise exclusive OR on two expressions.
Syntax
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.
For information on when a run-time error is generated by the ^ operator, see the Operator Behavior table.
