boole

boole Function

Syntax:

boole op integer-1 integer-2 → result-integer

Arguments and Values:

Op—a bit-wise logical operation specifier .

integer-1—an integer .

boole

integer-2—an integer .

result-integer—an integer .

Description:

boole performs bit-wise logical operations on integer-1 and integer-2, which are treated as if they were binary and in two’s complement representation.

The operation to be performed and the return value are determined by op.

boole returns the values specified for any op in Figure 12–17.

Examples:

 
(boole boole-ior 1 16) → 17 
(boole boole-and -2 5) → 4 
(boole boole-eqv 17 15) → -31 
;;; These examples illustrate the result of applying BOOLE and each 
;;; of the possible values of OP to each possible combination of bits.

Exceptional Situations:

Should signal type-error if its first argument is not a bit-wise logical operation specifier or if any subsequent argument is not an integer .

Notes:

In general,

(boole boole-and x y) *≡* (logand x y)

Programmers who would prefer to use numeric indices rather than bit-wise logical operation specifiers can get an equivalent effect by a technique such as the following:

;; The order of the values in this ‘table’ are such that
;; (logand (boole (elt boole-n-vector n) #b0101 #b0011) #b1111) =&gt; n
(defconstant boole-n-vector
  (vector boole-clr boole-and boole-andc1 boole-2
	  boole-andc2 boole-1 boole-xor boole-ior
	  boole-nor boole-eqv boole-c1 boole-orc1
	  boole-c2 boole-orc2 boole-nand boole-set))
→ BOOLE-N-VECTOR
(proclaim ’(inline boole-n))
→ implementation-dependent
(defun boole-n (n integer &amp;rest more-integers)
		(apply #’boole (elt boole-n-vector n) integer more-integers))
  → BOOLE-N
  (boole-n #b0111 5 3) → 7
  (boole-n #b0001 5 3) → 1
  (boole-n #b1101 5 3) → -3
  (loop for n from #b0000 to #b1111 collect (boole-n n 5 3))
  → (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1)
