Binary bit-wise operations

binarybit-wiseoperation

Each of the three bitwise operations has a different priority level:

and_expr:       shift_expr | and_expr "&" shift_expr
xor_expr:       and_expr | xor_expr "^" and_expr
or_expr:       xor_expr | or_expr "|" xor_expr

The "&" operator yields the bitwise AND of its arguments, which must be plain or long integers. The arguments are converted to a common type. bit-wiseand

The "^" operator yields the bitwise XOR (exclusive OR) of its arguments, which must be plain or long integers. The arguments are converted to a common type. bit-wisexor exclusiveor

The "|" operator yields the bitwise (inclusive) OR of its arguments, which must be plain or long integers. The arguments are converted to a common type. bit-wiseor inclusiveor
