| Syntax | LOGAND integer1 integer2

| Explanation | LOGAND reports the bitwise logical AND of its two inputs. Each input is expressed internally as a sixteen digit binary number. A logical AND operation is performed on the pair of binary digits (bits) in each position, resulting in a sixteen bit integer. The logical AND operation is defined on the binary digits 0 and 1 as follows: LOGAND 0 0 = 0 |
| Examples | LOGAND 2 1 Result: 0 2 in base 10 is 10 in base 2; 1 in base 10 is 01 in base 2. In the 1's place, LOGAND 0 1 = 0. In the 2's place, LOGAND 1 0 = 0. Thus, 00 base 2 is obtained. 00 base in 2 is 0 in base 10. LOGAND 2 3 Result: 2 2 in base 10 is 10 in base 2; 3 in base 10 is 11 in base 2. In the 1's place, LOGAND 0 1 = 0. In the 2's place, LOGAND 1 1 = 1. Thus, 10 base 2 is obtained. 10 in base 2 is 2 in base 10. |
