BINOR 

The BINOR function returns the Binary OR for all R such that

     R(n)=N1(n) OR N2(n)

for all n in [0, 15] where N1(n) and N2(n) represent the value of bit n 
in each expression and R represents the short integer result of the
function.  That is, if a particular bit in either argument contains a
one, the resulting bit will be one.  If both arguments have a zero in a
particular bit, the result will have a zero in that bit.

Syntax 

BINOR(N1,N2)

Parameters 

N1               Binary representation of the value of a numeric
                 expression.  This is a short integer.

N2               Binary representation of the value of a numeric
                 expression.  This is a short integer.

Examples 

The example below shows the bit layout for the BINOR function.  It shows
each bit of both arguments, and the result of the BINOR function.

     Bit Number:   0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10 11 12 13 14 15
     N1=           0  1  1  0  0  1  0  1  0  0  0  1  1  1  0  1
     N2=           0  1  0  0  1  1  1  0  0  1  0  0  1  1  1  0

     BINOR(N1,N2)= 0  1  1  0  1  1  1  1  0  1  0  1  1  1  1  1
