Bitwise XOR
A Bitwise XOR is a binary operation that takes two bit patterns of equal length and performs the logical exclusive OR operation on each corresponding bits pair. Each position’s result is 0 if both bits are 0 or if both bits are 1. Otherwise, the result is 1.
The Bitwise XOR operator does the following:
- It is a binary operator that takes two numbers.
- When we do Bitwise
^of these two numbers, it considers
