Are you human? 🤣🤣🤣

Maybe I haven't understood the task correctly, but I still can't understand how this works 🤔

I apologize, I was pissed off about things that didn't even have to do with software or computers.

You are clever but those 95 are not.

People that insult other people because their assessment/judgement is not aligned with their own, are people I would NEVER like to work with in a production environment.

So what? XOR is elementary logic. Using bitwise operators is normal e.g. in system or embedded programming. Not everyone is a frontend developer. Last but not least, this site is not about writing production code.

JS is used mostly for frontend where you have to deal with css, designs and high level of abstraction. I don't expect to find something like this. Frontend devs spend most of the time dealing with the dom, frameworks and sending/receinving data toward/from the backend. But fine, you can do it. In the end this is just an opinion of mine.

It is not human readable, it is short and works and probably efficient but not easily understandable at first sight by people that usually don't need to use bitwise operators: 99,99% of js users. Clever but very bad practice.I am very curious to know the thoughts of the 95 individuals who clicked on 'best practice'. You are clever but those 95 are not.

it looks ridiculously short

Please use spoiler flag next time.

Dont question magic

Hey, if it works, it works :D But would be really neat if there was some explanation about what is happening here, since it is not really straightforward.

Agree..
if we disregard all aspects that makes your solution bad,
actually your solution is the best. Congrats.
