bitor operator — Bitwise inclusive or operator
inclusive-or-expr := inclusive-or-expr "|" exclusive-or-expr |

The bitwise or operator requires integer or
enumeration operands. It performs the usual arithmetic conversions,
then does an inclusive or operation on pairs of
bits in the operands, resulting in an integer. The bitor operator is interchangeable with the
| token.
