FWIW, there is a real use case for bit-wise operations on floating point (I just ran into it recently) - shaders written for OpenGL implementations that only support older versions of GLSL (1.2 and earlier did not have support for bit-wise operators), and where there would be loss of precision if the floats were converted to ints.

BetaBitwise XOR Operator. The Python Bitwise XOR (^) Operator also known as the exclusive OR operator, is used to perform the XOR operation on two operands. XOR stands for "exclusive or", and it returns true if and only if exactly one of the operands is true. In the context of bitwise operations, it compares corresponding bits of two operands.

BetaPython bitwise operators are defined for the following built-in data types: int; bool; set and frozenset; dict (since Python 3.9) It’s not a widely known fact, but bitwise operators can perform operations from set algebra, such as union, intersection, and symmetric difference, as well as merge and update dictionaries.

BetaBitwise operators perform operations at the bit level, treating the operands as sequences of bits rather than traditional integer or floating-point values. Python provides six main bitwise operators: Bitwise AND (`&`) : Sets each bit to 1 if both corresponding bits of the operands are 1.

BetaTwo more operations with the same syntactic priority, in and not in, are supported by types that are iterable or implement the __contains__() method. Numeric Types — int, float, complex ¶ There are three distinct numeric types: integers, floating-point numbers, and complex numbers. In addition, Booleans are a subtype of integers.

BetaPython operators are symbols that perform operations on variables and values. They are a fundamental part of the Python programming language and are essential for performing computations, comparisons, and logical operations. Types of Python Operators Arithmetic Operators. These operators are used for performing mathematical operations: + (Addition)
