# Function Reference

BitNOT

Performs a bitwise NOT operation.

BitNOT ( value )

Parameters

value | The number to operate on.

Return Value

Returns the bitwise NOT of the value.
Bit operations are performed as 32-bit integers.

Remarks

Remember hex notation can be used for numbers.
Remember that in 2's-complement notation, BitNOT is functionally equivalent to adding 1 and negating the result.
Also remember that NOT changes a 0 bit to 1 and vice-versa.

Example

$x = BitNot(5)
#cs Comments:
Result is -6 because for 32-bit numbers
5 == 00000000000000000000000000000101 binary
-6 == 11111111111111111111111111111010 binary
and the first bit is signed
