XOR

[stormbind]

Hi all,

Is XOR logically equivalent to any combination of other operators?

if you mean the exclusive or statement, you can try something like this, although i'm not sure of its range of cross-browser support...

var x = true;
var y = false;

alert(x ^ y);

var x = false;
var y = true;

alert(x ^ y);

var x = true;
var y = true;

alert(x ^ y);

var x = false;
var y = false;

alert(x ^ y);

I know how to use it, but I want to know if it has a logical equivalent among a combination of other operators.

Not to state the obvious, but I guess it's logically equivalent to the ^ operator!

Since XOR means that one is true or the other is true but not both are true:

(x||y) && !(x&&y)

Is that what you're after?
