Clojure - Bitwise Operators

Groovy provides four bitwise operators. Following are the bitwise operators available in Groovy.

Sr.No.	Operator & Description
1	bit-and This is the bitwise “and” operator
2	bit-or This is the bitwise “or” operator
3	bit-xor This is the bitwise “xor” or Exclusive ‘or’ operator
4	bit-not This is the bitwise negation operator

Following is the truth table showcasing these operators.

p	q	p&q	p \| q	p ^ q
0	0	0	0	0
0	1	0	1	1
1	1	1	1	0
1	0	0	1	1

The following code snippet shows how the various operators can be used.

Example

Live Demo

(ns clojure.examples.hello
   (:gen-class))

;; This program displays Hello World
(defn Example []
   (def x (bit-and 00111100 00001101))
   (println x)
   
   (def x (bit-or 00111100 00001101))
   (println x)
   
   (def x (bit-xor 00111100 00001101))
   (println x)) 
(Example)

The above program produces the following output.
