< C Programming
The iso646.h header file is part of the C standard library. It was added to this library in a 1995 amendment to the C90 standard. It defines a number of macros which allow programmers to use C language bitwise and logical operators, which, without the header file, cannot be quickly or easily typed on some international and non-QWERTY keyboards.
The filename refers to the ISO646 standard, a 7-bit character set with a number of regional variations, some of which have accented characters in place of the punctuation marks used by C operators.
The macros
The iso646.h header defines the following 11 macros as stated below:
| Macro | Defined as |

| bitor | | |
| compl | ~ |
| not | ! |
