# std::bit_not

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | utility‎ | functional

Defined in header `<functional>` |  |
template< class T = void > struct bit_not; |  | (since C++14)

Function object for performing bitwise NOT. Effectively calls operator~ on type `T`.

### [edit] Specializations

The standard library provides a specialization of `std::bit_not` when `T` is not specified, which leaves the parameter types and return type to be deduced.
bit_not<void> | function object implementing ~x deducing argument and return types (class template specialization) [edit]
| (since C++14)

### [edit] Member types

Type | Definition
`result_type`(deprecated in C++17) | `T`
`argument_type`(deprecated in C++17) | `T`

### [edit] Member functions

operator() | returns the result of bitwise NOT of its argument (public member function)

## std::bit_not::operator()

constexpr T operator()( const T& arg ) const; |  |

Returns the result of bitwise NOT of `arg`.

### Parameters

arg | - | value to compute bitwise NOT of

### Return value

The result of ~arg.

### Exceptions

(none)

### Possible implementation

    constexpr T operator()(const T& arg) const
    {
        return ~arg;
    }
