In Dart it is possible to do Bitwise Operations with int and bool types.
Checks if the left and right side are both true. Learn more.
// int
print(0 & 1); // 0
print(1 & 0); // 0
print(1 & 1); // 1
print(0 & 0); // 0
// bool
print(false & true); // false
print(true & false); // false
print(true & true); // true
print(false & false); // false
Checks if either the left or right side are true. Learn more.
// int
print(0 | 1); // 1
print(1 | 0); // 1
print(1 | 1); // 1
print(0 | 0); // 0
// bool
print(false | true); // true
print(true | false); // true
print(true | true); // true
print(false | false); // false
Checks if both the left or right side are true but not both. Learn more.
// int
print(0 ^ 1); // 1
print(1 ^ 0); // 1
print(1 ^ 1); // 0
print(0 ^ 0); // 0
// bool
print(false ^ true); // true
print(true ^ false); // true
print(true ^ true); // false
print(false ^ false); // false
Negated AND operation.
// int
print(~(0 & 1) & 1); // 1
print(~(1 & 0) & 1); // 1
print(~(1 & 1) & 1); // 0
print(~(0 & 0) & 1); // 1
// bool
print(!(false & true)); // true
print(!(true & false)); // true
print(!(true & true)); // false
print(!(false & false)); // true
Negated inclusive OR operation.
// int
print(~(0 | 1) & 1); // 0
print(~(1 | 0) & 1); // 0
print(~(1 | 1) & 1); // 0
print(~(0 | 0) & 1); // 1
// bool
print(!(false | true)); // false
print(!(true | false)); // false
print(!(true | true)); // false
print(!(false | false)); // true
Negated exclusive OR operation.
// int
print(~(0 ^ 1) & 1); // 0
print(~(1 ^ 0) & 1); // 0
print(~(1 ^ 1) & 1); // 1
print(~(0 ^ 0) & 1); // 1
// bool
print(!(false ^ true)); // false
print(!(true ^ false)); // false
print(!(true ^ true)); // true
print(!(false ^ false)); // true
