If you ask a solution for a problem without the explicit mentioning
that it needs properties rational and effective, people in this
newsgroup (especially me) are inclined to deliver answers with
those properties. By explicitly mentioning them as requirements,
you make it sound like a trick question, that's why I asked.

But let's focus on the questions and not on their epitheton ornans.

You ask how to do bitewise not ... how is bitwise not different
from what \ does in ISO ? An example would be welcome.

xor(X,Y,Result) :- Result is (X /\ \Y) \/ ((\X) /\ Y).

Is that ok for you ?

Once you put your message in a newsgroup, it is no longer
yours. Especially if you are nameless.
