Performing Logical Operations
The Operating System supports five functions to support bit-level logical operations. The BitAnd, BitOr, BitXor, BitNot, and BitShift functions perform AND, OR, XOR, NOT, and bit-shifting operations, respectively. These routines are intended primarily for Pascal programmers. If you are programming in C, you can typically use C operators to perform the same logical operations more efficiently.
