Thanks.
I wonder why that's true for php when it's common to use ^ in many other languages for powers? I can't remember the last time I used a bitwise operator for anything, but I have commonly used powers for the type of work I've done. But then again, I may be an exception.

Lots of functions still use bit-based flags in PHP. Which is where OR
comes in handy. Can't say I've used the others recently. XOR is handy on
occasion, but doesn't really need an operator.
