[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49168] Wrong results with logical AND

[Rik]

Update of bug #49168 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Invalid                
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #1:

See the documentation for and:


 -- Z = and (X, Y)
 -- Z = and (X1, X2, ...)
     Return the logical AND of X and Y.

     This function is equivalent to the operator syntax 'x & y'.  If
     more than two arguments are given, the logical AND is applied
     cumulatively from left to right:

          (...((x1 & x2) & x3) & ...)

     At least one argument is required.

     See also: or, not, xor.


The construction


and (0x05, 0x02)


is equivalent to


logical (0x05) & logical (0x02)
=>
true & true
=>
true


See the function bitand for what you are trying to do.


  -- bitand (X, Y)
     Return the bitwise AND of non-negative integers.

     X, Y must be in the range [0,intmax]

     See also: bitor, bitxor, bitset, bitget, bitcmp, bitshift, intmax,
     flintmax.


With your sample input


bitand (0x05, 0x02)
ans = 0
