About This Feature

Overview

BITAND is a built-in function in WPS Spreadsheets for processing data and performing bitwise AND calculations on two values.

Its main capabilities include:

Insert BITAND from the Insert Function dialog when you want guided parameter entry.
Type =BITAND(...) directly in a cell or in the formula bar for faster formula input.
Review the function syntax and parameter details before confirming the formula.
