Eqv Operator

Microsoft® Visual Basic® Scripting Edition
Eqv Operator

Description

Used to perform a logical equivalence on two expressions.

Syntax

result = expression1 Eqv expression2
The Eqv operator syntax has these parts:

Part Description

result Any numeric variable.

expression1 Any expression.

expression2 Any expression.

Remarks

If either expression is Null, result is also Null. When neither expression is Null, result is determined according to the following table:

If expression1 is And expression2 is The result is
True True True

True False False

False True False

False False True
The Eqv operator performs a bitwise comparison of identically positioned bits in two numeric expressions and sets the corresponding bit in result according to the following table:

If bit in expression1 is And bit in expression2 is The result is

0 0 1

0 1 0

1 0 0

1 1 1
