F# Bitwise Operator
In F#, bitwise operator works on individual bits and return result after evaluation.
| Symbol | Description |
|---|---|
| &&& | Bitwise And operator |
| ||| | Bitwise OR operator |
| ^^^ | Bitwise exclusive OR operator |
| ~~~ | Bitwise negation operator |
| <<< | Bitwise left shift operator |
| >>> | Bitwise right shift operator |
F# Bitwise Operator Example
The bitwise AND operator (&) compares each bit of the first operand to the corresponding bit of the second operand. If both bits are 1, the corresponding result bit is set to 1. Otherwise, the corresponding result bit is set to 0.
In the above code, 0xFFFF is a hexadecimal number which is equivalent to binary ? 1111.
0xAAAA is a hexadecimal value which is equivalent to binary ? 1010.
So if we do it manually like – 1111 &&& 1010 = 1010 is result which is equivalent to AAAA in hexadecimal.
Output:
AAAA FFFF
