operator^ (pronounced as 'bitwise xor operator') is an operator to perform a xor and subsequently assign the result.

In the example below a '0011' is performed xor on with '0101' yielding '0110', which equals the decimal value of 6.


#include <cassert>



int main()

{

  const int i = 3;     //0011

  const int j = 5;     //0101

  const int k = i ^ j; //0110

  assert(i==6);

}
