Yeah LG, cut the newsspeak: it's not an OR, it's an AND.
Mathematically that should be "OR", not "AND"
Because it’s an “or” rather than an “xor”.
You seem to be assuming those are "or" rather than "and"
AND is not OR, but I understand your confusion.
You definitely want x || y, x ^^ y, and x implies y.
It's not an exclusive-or (exactly one is true), but rather an inclusive-or (at least one is true, potentially both).
By "or", do you mean that both options are true?
You are asking for both A&B and !(A&B)?
I'm fairly sure that's an 'and', not an 'or', per your reference [0].
