I've often wished there was too, for the sake of completeness and
aesthetics, I'd love to be able to write:
a xor b
instead of defining a function xor(a, b).
Unfortunately, outside of boolean algebra and simulating electrical
circuits, I can't think of any use-cases for an xor operator. Do you have
any?
