Bitwise Operations

Bitwise XOR (^)

variable_1	variable_2	result	status
true	true	false	same
true	false	true	different
false	true	true	different
false	false	false	same

Bitwise Left Shift (<<)

Bitwise Right Shift (>>)

Bitwise Unsigned Left Shift (<<<)

This operator is a binary operator, denoted by ‘<<<’. It returns the value of the first operand, left shifted by the number of bits specified by the second operand, with zeros placed in the least significant bits.

variable_1	variable_2	result
1	1	2
1	2	4
1	3	8
1	4	16

Bitwise Unsigned Right Shift (>>>)

This operator is a binary operator, denoted by ‘>>>’. It returns the value of the first operand, right shifted by the number of bits specified by the second operand, with zeros placed in the most significant bits.
