Why does Python have a bitwise but not a logical xor operator? It's even weirder because boolean objects do have a __xor__ method.
It would be nice for symmetry, but it would be infrequently used compared to the other operators and is not strictly necessary as logical XOR cannot and would not short-circuit, unlike logical AND and OR. Cheers, Chris -- http://blog.rebertia.com
