The bitwise OR operator in programming is represented by the symbol '|' (vertical bar). It takes two integer operands and performs a bitwise OR operation on them. This operator sets each bit of the result to 1 if either of the corresponding bits in the operands is 1. Therefore, the logical expression x | y evaluates to a value of 1 at each bit position where either x or y has a bit with value 1.
