Function xor

Logical xor. Test whether one and only one value is defined with a nonzero/nonempty value. For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise.

Syntax

math.xor(x, y)

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
x	number | BigNumber | Complex | Unit | Array | Matrix	First value to check
y	number | BigNumber | Complex | Unit | Array | Matrix	Second value to check

Returns

Type	Description
boolean | Array | Matrix	Returns true when one and only one input is defined with a nonzero/nonempty value.

Examples

math.xor(2, 4);   // returns false

a = [2, 0, 0];
b = [2, 7, 0];
c = 0;

math.xor(a, b);   // returns [false, true, false]
math.xor(a, c);   // returns [true, false, false]
