Python XOR int

Use ^ operator in Python to get XOR int. As XOR is a bitwise operator, it will compare bits of both integers bit by bit after converting them into binary numbers.

The truth table for XOR (binary)

Python XOR int

Simple example code.

# Initializing two integers a and b
a = 10
b = 30

# Finding XOR of a and b using ^ operator
c = a ^ b

# Printing the XOR value
print(a, "XOR", b, "=", c)

Output:

XOR(a,b) for integers

def XOR(a,b):
    return a ^ b

nbr1 = 67
nbr2 = 73
print (XOR(nbr1, nbr2))

a = 5
b = 3

result = a ^ b
print(result)  # Output: 6

In this example, the binary representation of 5 is 101, and the binary representation of 3 is 011. Performing a bitwise XOR operation on these binary numbers yields 110, which is 6 in decimal.

You can use the ^ operator to perform XOR operations on integers in Python.
