Comparing binary values in MySQL
Say you have two binary values 001011 001111 How can you get the number of different bits in MySQL? I tried SELECT BIT_COUNT(BINARY 001011 ^ BINARY 001111) This returns 6, while I need a solution that returns 1 in this example. SELECT BIT_COUNT( CONV( '001011', 2, 10 ) ^ CONV( '001111', 2, 10 ) ) SELECT BIT_COUNT(b'001011' ^ b'001111'); It's converting the numbers 1011 and 1111 (base 10) to binary and doing the comparison. If you did: SELECT BIT_COUNT(11 ^ 15) It'd work. 来源: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7111728/comparing-binary-values-in-mysql
