> I'm sorry but this example i just couldnt get i know > this isnt the place to explain it but i read it here :) Well, first of all: 49 XOR 57 = 8 It might be clearer in binary: 00110001 XOR 00111001 = 00001000 The result (8) contains only bits that are set in one but not both of the numbers. Now, when they say "12" ^ "9", here's what they mean: That's an ASCII "9", its ASCII code is 57. So saying "9" is the same as saying 57. As for the "12", it will only use the first character, which is the "1", and the ASCII code for "1" is 49. Therefore: "12" ^ "9" == "1" ^ "9" == 49 ^ 57 == 8 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.bitwise.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+36863 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+36863&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+36863&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
