>> A xor B := ( A and not B) or ( B and not A)

I only want to leave here an example: although 'logically' they return the same 'Perl-truthness', in this case they won't return same value:
perl -wle 'my( $A, $B ); print for map "[$_]", ( $A xor $B ), ( $A and + not $B or $B and not $A ); '
output ('' vs. undefined):
Use of uninitialized value $_ in concatenation (.) or string at -e lin +e 1. [] []
