Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The code is using a bitwise XOR operator (^) which returns a binary 1 if corresponding bits of two operands are different. In this case, the operands are 13 and 15 which in binary are 1101 and 1111. The XOR operation returns 0010 which is equivalent to decimal 2. Therefore, the output of the code is 2.
