Atomics - and() Method

and method computes the bitwise AND with a provided value at a given position in the array. It returns the old value at that position. This atomic operation ensures that no other write can happen until the modified value is written back.

Syntax

Atomics.and(typedArray, index, value)

Parameters

typedArray is the integer typed array.
index is position in typedarray.
value with which bitwise AND to be computed.

Return

Returns old value at given position.

Exceptions

TypeError in case passed array is not a integer typed array.
RangeError if index passed is out of bound in typed array.

Example

Following is the code for implementing JavaScript Atomics −
