"boolean" "xor" Operation
This section describes 'boolean' 'xor' operation
The "boolean" "xor" operation is provided through the boolean.xor() function, which has the following syntax:
boolean.xor(a, b)
Parameters:
a - First "boolean" data object
b - Second "boolean" data object
Return:
Returns a new "boolean" data object representing $true,
if both "a" and "b" represent different Boolean values.
Otherwise, returns a new "boolean" data object representing
$false.
If we use 1 for $true and 0 for $false, the Boolean value
represented by returning data object can be described as:
a 0 1
b |----
0 | 0 1
1 | 1 0
The "boolean" "xor" operation can be expressed in the "^" operator format:
a ^ b; # alias of the following function call boolean.xor(a, b);
Design options:
1. Use ^ as the "boolean" "xor" operator.
2. Use ^^ as the "boolean" "xor" operator.
3. Use $xor as the "boolean" "xor" operator.
