bitwise exclusive OR

class MainClass
{
  public static void Main()
  {
    byte byte1 = 0x9a;  // binary 10011010, decimal 154
    byte byte2 = 0xdb;  // binary 11011011, decimal 219
    byte result;
    System.Console.WriteLine("byte1 = " + byte1);
    System.Console.WriteLine("byte2 = " + byte2);
    
    result = (byte) (byte1 ^ byte2);
    System.Console.WriteLine("byte1 ^ byte2 = " + result);
  }
}

byte1 = 154
byte2 = 219
byte1 ^ byte2 = 65

Use bitwise OR to make a number odd.

using System; 
 
class Example {  
  public static void Main() { 
    ushort num;  
    ushort i;     
 
    for(i = 1; i <= 10; i++) { 
      num = i; 
 
      Console.WriteLine("num: " + num); 
 
      num = (ushort) (num | 1); // num | 0000 0001 
 
      Console.WriteLine("num after turning on bit zero: " 
                        +  num + "\n");  
    } 
  } 
}
