# BitXor

Performs a bitwise logical XOR operation.

## Method Signature

```
BitXor(number1=[integer], number2=[integer])
```

### Arguments

| Argument  | Type      | Required | Description                    | Default |
| --------- | --------- | -------- | ------------------------------ | ------- |
| `number1` | `integer` | `true`   | Numeric value for bitwise XOR. |         |
| `number2` | `integer` | `true`   | Numeric value for bitwise XOR. |         |

## Examples

### Calculate bitwise logical XOR

Uses the bitXor function to perform the logical XOR operation on each pair of the corresponding bits

[Run Example](https://try.boxlang.io/?code=eJxLyiyJyC%2FSUDDVUTBW0LTmAgAqBwQD)

```java
bitXor( 5, 3 );

```

Result: 6
