3/9     XOR is the same as || right? (i.e. exclusive or)
        \_ no. i recommend buying a copy of K&R --aaron
        What are ways to write "inclusive or"?
        \_ questions like these elicit good response following the bike shed
           principle.
            \_ I am unfamiliar with "the bike shed principle".  Also, i don't
                really care about the differences between XOR and ||.
                basically i just want to know short hand to write inclusive/
                exclusive or.  So that i can say "is A XOR B true?" or "is
                A IOR B true".  where, if A and B or true the answer to the
                A IOR B true?"  where, if A and B are true, the answer to the
                former is NO and the answer to the latter is YES.
                \_ RTFM you dumbass. What are you talking about? Are you
                   even asking about a programming language? Which one?
                        \_ NO I AM NOT.  If i was i would have specified.
                   You can say whatever you want but || is logical or in C/C++.
        \_ yes, get K&R, but in the meantime, a quick lesson.  in C/C++/Java:
                || : short-circuiting, logical, inclusive OR
                |  : bitwise inclusive OR; doubles as non-short-circuiting,
                     logical, inclusive OR
                ^  : bitwise XOR; doubles as logical XOR
