释义 | > as lemmasinclusive or A Boolean operator that has the value unity if at least one of the operands is unity, and is otherwise zero; more fully inclusive or (corresponding to Latin vel). Also: a Boolean operator that has the value unity if just one of two operands is unity, not both of them; more fully exclusive or (corresponding to Latin aut). Frequently attributive. Cf. and n.1 2, not n. 4.When exclusive or (sometimes written xor) has more than two arguments, it is usual to make the function unity if and only if an odd number of the arguments are 1 (this represents a generalization of the definition given above for two arguments). Then the placing of the brackets in an exclusive or function is immaterial: e.g. the exclusive or of the four arguments a, b, c, d is ((a xor) b xor c) xor d, equivalent to (a xor (b xor c)) xor d and to a xor ((b xor c) xor d).

The operation of all these types may be described with the words ‘or’, ‘and’, ‘if’, ‘operated’, and ‘not operated’. 1940 W. V. Quine Math. Logic i. 12 When ‘or’ is used in the inclusive sense..joint truth of the components verifies the compound. An ‘or’-compound in this sense can be expressed more clearly by adding the words ‘or both’.] 1947 Proc. IRE 35 758/1 The ‘or’ operation is performed by a ‘buffing’ circuit. 1949 E. C. Berkeley Giant Brains ix. 149 The ‘or’..that is defined in the truth table is often called the inclusive ‘or’ and means ‘and/or’... There is another ‘or’ in common use, often called the exclusive ‘or’, meaning ‘or else’. 1970 O.
