- Suppose you have two original binary numbers A and B
- You applied XOR on A and B to get C
- Now you want to reverse the XOR operation and want to obtain A
- For this, you will need B and C
- To find out A, just XOR B and C. Because XOR is it's own inverse, you will get A
- Similarly, to find out B, all you need to do is XOR A and C
- Example: XORing 1011 and 1100 gives 0111. Applying XOR on 1011 and 0111 returns 1100
About XOR Calculation
XOR is a digital logic gate that outputs true or 1 only when the two binary bit inputs to it are unequal i.e for an input of 0 & 1 or 1 & 0.
You can remember the above result using one of these logics too:-
- Returns true when only one of the inputs is 1
- Returns false when both the inputs are same
It is also termed as EOR or EXOR (exclusive OR gate). So, it is similar to OR gate but different in the sense that only one input must be 1 for a result of High whereas in OR either of the input can be true for it to return 1.
In a way XOR represents an inequality function, != or Not Equal To. Checkout the Truth Table below for more information on the results.
What can you do with this tool?
Well, simply put it you can use it to calculate XOR online. The tool supports inputs in the common numerical bases Binary, Octal, Decimal, Hex & even ASCII. That means you can also XOR hex values or XOR strings in ASCII. This is done by first converting the inputs into their Binary equivalents then performing the XOR operation on them. Finally, the results are returned in all of the above numerical bases so that you can pick whichever ones you want.
Intermediate Calculation
The intermediate results are shown in a tabular format which can help you diagnose any problems you encountered while doing a manual XOR operation. In this table, your inputs are shown in their original form. If the input base is not binary then each translation of the inputs to binary is also shown in a different column.

Use Cases
Calculate XOR of Text
XOR of text is calculated by first converting each character into it's equivalent ASCII character code. The same process is applied to each line of the input until all that remains are decimal numbers. These numbers are then converted into binary and bitwise XOR is applied on them. The final output is again converted back to ASCII for you to see.
- Paste all the texts you want to XOR in the input box.
- The converter supports multiple delimiters. But it's best to keep each text value in a new line.
- Change the input base to Ascii. The calculator does it's best to automatically detect the input type (Binary, Octal, Decimal, Hex or ASCII Text). But you might want to give it an easy time and just let it know that the input is plain text in ASCII format.
