Use the BITAND function to perform the bitwise AND comparison of two integers specified by numeric expressions.
Command Syntax
BITAND (expression1, expression2)
Description
The bitwise AND operation compares two integers bit by bit.
- It returns a bit of 1 if both bits are 1; else, it returns a bit of 0.
- If either expression1 or expression2 evaluates to the null value, null is returned.
- Non integer values are truncated before the operation is performed.
- The BITAND operation is performed on a 32-bit twos-complement word.
NOTE: Differences in hardware architecture can make the use of the high-order bit non portable.
Example
CRT BITAND(6,12)
;* The binary value of 6 = 0110
;* The binary value of 12 = 1100
;* Output will be 0100
