Can you show me how to write an if statement for this?
I have it in my code. It will not work for the last test.
% this if statement would not work with a=[0 0 1 1];b=[1 0 1 0];.
%if (a==0 & b~=0) || (b==0 & a~=0)
%i = 1;
%else
%i = 0;
%end
%y = i;

Problem statement was not specific and didn't indicate the inputs a, b could be vectors.

Sorry, I just wondered if xor was somehow restricted on this cody . . . I guess not.
