Bitwise operators
Bitwise operators internally manipulate floating-point numbers to change them into 32-bit integers. The exact operation performed depends on the operator, but all bitwise operations evaluate each binary digit (bit) of the 32-bit integer individually to compute a new value.
The following table lists the ActionScript bitwise operators:
Operator |

Bitwise OR |

Bitwise XOR |
|
Bitwise NOT |
|
Shift left |

Shift right |
