\(+Number, -Result)
-Result is \ +Number

   Evaluates the bitwise complement of Number and unifies the resulting value
with Result.



Arguments
   Number              Integer.
   Result              Output: integer.

Type
   Arithmetic

Description

   Evaluates the bitwise complement of Number and unifies the resulting value
   with Result.

   This operation behaves as if operating on an unlimited length two's
   complement representation.

   This predicate can be used as a function in arithmetic expressions.
   In coroutining mode, if Number is uninstantiated, the call to \/2 is
   delayed until this variable is instantiated.




Modes and Determinism
   \(+, -) is det

Exceptions
     4 --- Number is not instantiated (non-coroutining mode only).
     5 --- Number is a number but not an integer.
    24 --- Number is not of a numeric type.

Examples
   
Success:
     Result is \1.		% gives Result = -2
     Result is \5.		% gives Result = -6
     Result is \ -6.		% gives Result = 5

Error:
     Result is \0.0.           % type error
