Introduction to '\oplus' - Tex Command for Programmers

The '\oplus' command in Tex is used to represent the operator symbol '+' enclosed within a circle. This symbol is used in mathematics to represent the exclusive or (XOR) operation between two boolean values. In Tex, it is used to represent the same operation in typesetting documents.

Usage

To use the '\oplus' command in your Tex document, you need to include the amssymb package at the beginning of your document as follows:

\usepackage{amssymb}

This package includes a number of useful symbols, including '\oplus'.

To use the '\oplus' command, simply type the following in your document:

$\oplus$

This will produce the symbol in your typeset document as shown below:

$\oplus$

Note that since the '\oplus' command is a math-mode command, it needs to be enclosed within dollar signs '$'.

Example

Consider the following example that uses the '\oplus' command to represent the XOR operation between two boolean values:

Let A and B be boolean values. Then A $\oplus$ B represents the XOR operation between A and B.

The output of this code will be as follows:

Let A and B be boolean values. Then A $\oplus$ B represents the XOR operation between A and B.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the '\oplus' command in Tex is a useful command to represent the exclusive or (XOR) operation between two boolean values in typeset documents. It is easy to use and produces high-quality output.
