What are XAND and XOR

Question

What are XAND and XOR? Also is there an XNot

Answer 1

Hmm.. well I know about XOR (exclusive or) and NAND and NOR. These are logic gates and have their software analogs.

Essentially they behave like so:

XOR is true only when one of the two arguments is true, but not both.

F XOR F = F
F XOR T = T
T XOR F = T
T XOR T = F

NAND is true as long as both arguments are not true.

F NAND F = T
F NAND T = T
T NAND F = T
T NAND T = F

NOR is true only when neither argument is true.

F NOR F = T
F NOR T = F
T NOR F = F
T NOR T = F
