%| Operator

Purpose

Performs a logical bit-wise Or of two bit patterns.

Syntax

i %| j

i, j:integer expression

Description

I %| j sets in the result only the bits which are set in both i and j. The %| bitwise operator is equivalent as the 'older' | operator. The %| operator is provided in complement of the new %& bitwise and operator.

Example

Print Bin$(3 %| 2, 4)  // Prints 0011

Remarks

Or is synonymous with %| and can be used instead:

Print Bin$(3 Or 10, 4)  // Prints 1011
