# Function Reference

# BitXOR

Performs a bitwise exclusive OR (XOR) operation.

BitXOR ( value1, value2 [, value n] )

## Parameters

value1 | The first number.
value2 | The second number.
value n | [optional] The nth number - up to 255 values can be specified.

## Return Value

Returns the value of the parameters bitwise-XOR'ed together.
Bit operations are performed as 32-bit integers.

## Remarks

Remember hex notation can be used for numbers.
BitXOR() returns 1 in a bit position if there are an odd number of 1's in the corresponding bit position in all the input arguments, and 0 otherwise.
