BINXOR 

The BINXOR function returns the Binary Exclusive OR for all R such that

     R(n) = N1(n) XOR 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 of both arguments have the same
contents (either zero or one) the same bit in the result will contain a
zero.  If a particular bit in both arguments do not have the same
contents, the same bit in the result will contain a one.

Syntax 

BINXOR(N1,N2)

Parameters 

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

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

Examples 

The example below shows the bit layout for the BINXOR function.  It shows
the values in each bit of the arguments, and the values in each bit of
the result.

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