PYTHON ~ operator: a=60,b=12,c=4,d=1. print(a^b|~c^d)

Question

a=60,b=12,c=4,d=1. print(a^b|~c^d)
Can someone explain the logic. Especially ~ operator. Thanks

2)-2.0
3)-6.0
4)-5.0

Answer 1

^ : XOR
~ : bit reverse

you first convert numbers to binary and then follow this logic for XOR : one or other but not both

5 ^ 7 =

101 ^ 111 =

101 ^
111 =

010 = 2

the ~ negates all bits and the signum aswell.
It usually returns:
~a = -(a+1)
~2 = -3
