Flopscope Context

Element-wise bitwise XOR.

Computes the bit-wise XOR of the underlying binary representation of the integers in the input arrays. This ufunc implements the C/Python operator ^.

Parameters

x1, x2:array_like

Only integer and boolean types are handled. If x1.shape != x2.shape, they must be broadcastable to a common shape (which becomes the shape of the output).

out:ndarray, None, or tuple of ndarray and None, optional

A location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have a shape that the inputs broadcast to. If not provided or None, a freshly-allocated array is returned. A tuple (possible only as a keyword argument) must have length equal to the number of outputs.

where:array_like, optional

This condition is broadcast over the input. At locations where the condition is True, the out array will be set to the ufunc result. Elsewhere, the out array will retain its original value. Note that if an uninitialized out array is created via the default out=None, locations within it where the condition is False will remain uninitialized.

**kwargs

For other keyword-only arguments, see the ufunc docs.

Returns

out:ndarray or scalar

Result. This is a scalar if both x1 and x2 are scalars.

Examples

>>> import flopscope.numpy as fnp

The number 13 is represented by 00001101. Likewise, 17 is represented by 00010001. The bit-wise XOR of 13 and 17 is therefore 00011100, or 28:

>>> flops.bitwise_xor(13, 17)
28
>>> flops.binary_repr(28)
'11100'
>>> flops.bitwise_xor(31, 5)
26
>>> flops.bitwise_xor([31,3], 5)
array([26,  6])
>>> flops.bitwise_xor([31,3], [5,6])
array([26,  5])
>>> flops.bitwise_xor([True, True], [False, True])
array([ True, False])

The ^ operator can be used as a shorthand for flops.bitwise_xor on ndarrays.

>>> x1 = flops.array([True, True])
>>> x2 = flops.array([False, True])
>>> x1 ^ x2
array([ True, False])
