The ``&`` operator yields the bitwise AND of its arguments, which must be plain
or long integers. The arguments are converted to a common type.

The ``^`` operator yields the bitwise XOR (exclusive OR) of its arguments, which
must be plain or long integers. The arguments are converted to a common type.
