bit-not bit-array &optional opt-arg resulting-bit-array

Arguments and Values:

bit-array, bit-array1, bit-array2 - a bit array.

Opt-arg - a bit array, or t, or nil. The default is nil.

Bit-array, bit-array1, bit-array2, and opt-arg (if an array) must all be of the same rank and dimensions.

resulting-bit-array - a bit array.

Description:

These functions perform bit-wise logical operations on bit-array1 and bit-array2 and return an array of matching rank and dimensions, such that any given bit of the result is produced by operating on corresponding bits from each of the arguments.

In the case of bit-not, an array of rank and dimensions matching bit-array is returned that contains a copy of bit-array with all the bits inverted.

If opt-arg is of type (array bit) the contents of the result are destructively placed into opt-arg. If opt-arg is the symbol t, bit-array or bit-array1 is replaced with the result; if opt-arg is nil or omitted, a new array is created to contain the result.

The next figure indicates the logical operation performed by each of the functions.

Bit-wise Logical Operation
Function	Operation
bit-and	and
bit-eqv	equivalence (exclusive nor)
bit-not	complement
bit-ior	inclusive or
bit-xor	exclusive or
bit-nand	complement of bit-array1 and bit-array2
bit-nor	complement of bit-array1 or bit-array2
bit-andc1	and complement of bit-array1 with bit-array2
bit-andc2	and bit-array1 with complement of bit-array2
bit-orc1	or complement of bit-array1 with bit-array2
bit-orc2	or bit-array1 with complement of bit-array2

Examples:

 (bit-and (setq ba #*11101010) #*01101011)  #*01101010
 (bit-and #*1100 #*1010)  #*1000      
 (bit-andc1 #*1100 #*1010)  #*0010
 (setq rba (bit-andc2 ba #*00110011 t))  #*11001000
 (eq rba ba)  true
 (bit-not (setq ba #*11101010))  #*00010101
 (setq rba (bit-not ba 
                     (setq tba (make-array 8 
                                           :element-type 'bit))))
 #*00010101
 (equal rba tba)  true
 (bit-xor #*1100 #*1010)  #*0110
