Operator Imp= (Implication And Assign)

Performs a bitwise-imp (implication) and assigns the result to a variable

Syntax
   Declare Operator Imp= ( ByRef lhs As T1, ByRef rhs As T2 )

Usage
   lhs Imp= rhs

Parameters
   lhs
      The variable to assign to.
   T1
      Any numeric or boolean type.
   rhs
      The value to perform a bitwise-imp (implication) with lhs.
   T2
      Any numeric or boolean type.

Description
   This operator performs a bitwise-imp and assigns the result to a 
   variable (for conversion of a boolean to an integer, false or true 
   boolean value becomes 0 or -1 integer value). It is functionally 
   equivalent to:
      lhs = lhs Imp rhs

   Imp is a bitwise operator which is the same as (Not lhs) Or rhs.  Imp= 
   compares each bit of its operands, lhs and rhs, and if the bit in lhs is 
   0 or the bit in rhs is 1, then the corresponding bit in the first 
   operand, lhs, is set to 1, otherwise it is set to 0.

   This operator can be overloaded for user-defined types as a member 
   Operator using the appropriate syntax.

   Note: Similarly to the operator '=[>]' (assign), the alternative symbol 
   'Imp=>' can be also used.

Example
   Dim As UByte a = &b00110011
   Dim As UByte b = &b01010101
   a Imp= b
   '' Result    a = &b11011101
   Print Bin(a)

Dialect Differences
   * In the -lang qb dialect, this operator cannot be overloaded.
