Condition in Select statement….. T SQL

Question

I have a table1 with columns as C1, C2, C3 and C4

All these columns stores bit value(true or false).

How to write a select query which uses the logical operations on these columns and gets me the final result?

Ex.:

Select ((C1 OR C2) AND (C3 OR C4)) AS FinalResult
from table1

Answer 1

Bitwise Operators are supported for bit columns:

Select ((C1 | C2) & (C3 | C4)) AS FinalResult
from table1

When both operands are bit , the result is going to be same as if logical operators were applied.

Answer 2

Just test to see if it is equal to 1 (true):

Select CASE WHEN (C1 = 1 OR C2 = 1) AND (C3 = 1 OR C4 = 1) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS FinalResult
from table1
