Inlets

param1: The left inlet. Any value received via this inlet is used with the value in the right inlet param2, and the result is sent via the outlet result.; Type: Changeable
param2: The right inlet. Any value received via this inlet is used with the value in the left inlet param1.; Type: Changeable

Outlets

result: Type: Changeable

Comments

These operators implement the low-level bitwise functions found in languages like C. The symbols of the bitwise and, or and xor operators has been altered because the corresponding symbols in C are reserved in OSW for more frequently used operations.

The bitwise operators currently only operate on Integers.

These operators only output a result when new values have been received by both inlets. Thus, if a new value is received by param1, no result will be computed until a value is received by param2 as well. If this is not the behavior you want, try the regular (asynchronous) bitwise operators instead.
