We have Operators in perl for Bit-wise operations

The Bit-Manipulation Operators

The following bit operators are supported in Perl:

The & (bitwise AND) operator

The | (bitwise OR) operator

The ^ (bitwise XOR or "exclusive or") operator

The ~ (bitwise NOT) operator

The << (left shift) and >> (right shift) operators
