Performs bitwise or for ints or binary values.
Signature
> bits or {flags} (target)
Flags
-
--endian, -e {string}: Byte encode endian, available options: native(default), little, big.
Parameters
-
target: Right-hand side of the operation.

| input | output |
|---|---|
| int | int |
| binary | binary |
| list<int> | list<int> |

Examples
Apply bits or to two numbers
> 2 | bits or 6 6
Apply bitwise or to a list of numbers
> [8 3 2] | bits or 2 ╭───┬────╮ │ 0 │ 10 │ │ 1 │ 3 │ │ 2 │ 2 │ ╰───┴────╯
Apply bitwise or to binary data
> 0x[88 cc] | bits or 0x[42 32] Length: 2 (0x2) bytes | null_char printable whitespace ascii_other non_ascii 00000000: ca fe ××
Apply bitwise or to binary data of varying lengths with specified endianness
> 0x[c0 ff ee] | bits or 0x[ff] --endian big Length: 3 (0x3) bytes | null_char printable whitespace ascii_other non_ascii 00000000: c0 ff ff ×××
Apply bitwise or to input binary data smaller than the operor
> 0x[ff] | bits or 0x[12 34 56] --endian little Length: 3 (0x3) bytes | null_char printable whitespace ascii_other non_ascii 00000000: ff 34 56 ×4V
