XOR

Syntax

XOR

Description

XOR stands for eXclusive OR. Returns NULL if either operand is NULL. For non-NULL operands, evaluates to 1 if an odd number of operands is non-zero, otherwise 0 is returned.

Examples

SELECT 1 XOR 1;
+---------+
| 1 XOR 1 |
+---------+
|       0 |
+---------+

SELECT 1 XOR 0;
+---------+
| 1 XOR 0 |
+---------+
|       1 |
+---------+

SELECT 1 XOR NULL;
+------------+
| 1 XOR NULL |
+------------+
|       NULL |
+------------+

In the following example, the right 1 XOR 1 is evaluated first, and returns 0. Then, 1 XOR 0 is evaluated, and 1 is returned.

SELECT 1 XOR 1 XOR 1;
+---------------+
| 1 XOR 1 XOR 1 |
+---------------+
|             1 |
+---------------+
