Shorthand operator for AND, NOT

[Archos]

Does exist a shorthand assignment operator to assign AND and NOT at
the same time? like &^=

No. But with use of boolean algebra, there may be a simpler
representation anyway for you. !(a && b) == !a || !b

Then ,just for archiving, the assignment "&^=" would be:
a = a & b ^ a

Then ,just for archiving, the assignment "&^=" would be:
a = a & b ^ a

You do realize that "^" is the XOR operator and not the NOT operator
right?

a = a & b ^ a

is equivalent to:
a = a & ~b

which is equivalent to:
a &= ~b

I still can't see a significant use case for "&^="

My fault. It's for bit clear


number &= ^(1 << x);

 

[Archos]

number &= ~(1 << x);

My fault. It's for bit clear

number &= ^(1 << x);
