# Xor

# Parameters

None.

# Description

Often used for lightweight (meaning worthless ;) encryption, this will take two values and perform an exclusive OR with each bit following the basic rules of XOR. The result can be XORed with one of the original numbers to reveal the other number. See the example for more. See also: And, Or, Not.

# Example

num=%11110000111100001111000011110000 ; Define a bit pattern which is easy to recognize bitmask=Rnd(-2147483648,2147483647) ; Define a RANDOM Xor 32bit wide bitmask ; This line prints the binary and decimal numbers before the Xor Print "Binary number is: "+Bin$(num)+" ("+num+")" ; This line prints the binary and decimal numbers of the Xor bitmask Print "Xor bitmask is: "+Bin$(bitmask)+" ("+bitmask+")" Print "------------------------------------------------------------------" ; This line Xor's the number with the bitmask xres=num Xor bitmask ; This line prints the binary and decimal numbers after the Xor Print "Xor result is: "+Bin$(xres)+" ("+xres+")" Print "------------------------------------------------------------------" ; This line Xor's the Xor result with the bitmask again xres=xres Xor bitmask ; This line prints the binary and decimal numbers after the second Xor. NOTE: This number is identical to the original number Print "Result Xor'ed again: "+Bin$(xres)+" ("+xres+")" WaitMouse ; Wait for the mouse before ending.
