			OPERATOR: Xor Xor The Xor operator is used to perform a logical exclusion on two expressions, where the expressions are Null, or are of Boolean subtype and have a value of True or False. The Xor operator can also be used a "bitwise operator" to make a bit-by-bit comparison of two integers. If both bits are the same in the comparison (both are 0's or 1's), then a 0 is returned. Otherwise, a 1 is returned. Code: <% =True Xor True %> <% =True Xor False %> <% =False Xor True %> <% =False Xor False %> Output: False True True False Code: <% expression1 = True %> <% expression2 = False %> <% =expression1 Xor expression2 %> Output: True In this example, the Xor performs a bitwise comparison on the 3 (in binary 011) and the 5 (in binary 101), and returns a 6 (in binary 110). Code: <% Expression1 = 3 Expression2 = 5 Result = Expression1 Xor Expression2 Response.Write "Result = " & Result %> Output: Result = 6
