Exclusive disjunction
MyWikiBiz, Author Your Legacy — Sunday March 21, 2010
Exclusive disjunction, also known as logical inequality or symmetric difference, is an operation on two logical values, typically the values of two propositions, that produces a value of true just in case exactly one of its operands is true.
The truth table of p XOR q (also written as p + q or p ≠ q) is as follows:
| p | q | p XOR q |
|---|---|---|
| F | F | F |
| F | T | T |
| T | F | T |
| T | T | F |
The following equivalents can then be deduced:
