Logic and bit operations
bit.bitand (on page 9-10)
bit.bitxor (on page 9-11)
Performs a bitwise logical OR operation on decimal 10 (binary 1010) with decimal 9
(binary 1001) will return a value of decimal 11 (binary 1011):
value = bit.bitor(10, 9)
print(value)
Output: 1.100000e+01
Performs a bitwise logical XOR (Exclusive OR) operation on two numbers.
value = bit.xor(value1, value2)
value1: First number for the XOR operation.
value2: Second number for the XOR operation.
value: Returned result of the XOR operation.

This function performs a logical Exclusive OR operation on two numbers.

Any fractional parts of value1 and value2 are truncated to make them integers.
The returned value is also an integer.
Logic and bit operations
bit.bitor (on page 9-10)
Performs a bitwise logical exclusive OR operation on decimal 10 (binary 1010) with
decimal 9 (binary 1001) will return a value of decimal 3 (binary 0011):
value = bit.bitxor(10, 9)
print(value)
Output: 3.000000e+00
Clears a bit at a given index position.
value = bit.clear(value1, index)
value1: Given number.
index: Index position of the bit to be cleared (1 to 32).
value: Returns the result of the manipulation.

This function clears a bit at a given index position.

Any fractional part of value1 is truncated to make it an integer. The returned value
is also an integer.

The least significant bit of the given number is at index 1. The most significant bit
is at index 32.
