SIMD.xor

The static SIMD.%type%.xor() method returns a new instance with the logical XOR of the lane values (a ^ b).

Syntax

SIMD.Int8x16.xor(a, b)
SIMD.Int16x8.xor(a, b)
SIMD.Int32x4.xor(a, b)

SIMD.Uint8x16.xor(a, b)
SIMD.Uint16x8.xor(a, b)
SIMD.Uint32x4.xor(a, b)

SIMD.Bool8x16.xor(a, b)
SIMD.Bool16x8.xor(a, b)
SIMD.Bool32x4.xor(a, b)
SIMD.Bool64x2.xor(a, b)

Parameters

a

An instance of a SIMD type.

b

Another instance of a SIMD type.

Return value

A new corresponding SIMD data type with the logical XOR of the lane values (a ^ b).

Description

The bitwise XOR operation yields 1, if a and b are different. The truth table for the XOR operation is:

a	b	a ^ b
0	0	0
0	1	1
1	0	1
1	1	0

For example, a bitwise XOR of 5 & 1 results in 0100 which is 4 in decimal.

5  0101
1  0001
   ----
4  0100

Examples

Bitwise XOR of two Int32x4

var a = SIMD.Int32x4(1, 2, 4, 8);
var b = SIMD.Int32x4(5, 5, 5, 5);
SIMD.Int32x4.xor(a, b);
// Int32x4[4, 7, 1, 13]
