Scala Int ^ Method

The ^ method in Scala Int class is used to perform bitwise XOR operation on two integers. It returns a new integer which is the result of XOR between the two integers.

Syntax

The syntax for using ^ method is:

def ^ (x: Int): Int

Where x is the integer with which the current integer will be XORed.

Example

Here's an example that demonstrates the usage of ^ method:

val x = 5
val y = 10
val z = x ^ y

println(z)

Output:

15

In the above example, the value of x is 5 and the value of y is 10. The bitwise XOR operation is performed on these values using ^ method which results in 15. The value of z is then printed which is 15.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we introduced the ^ method of Scala Int class. We learned the syntax for using it and also saw an example demonstrating its usage. The bitwise XOR operation is very important in various programming scenarios and this method provides an easy way to perform it on integers in Scala.
