 * </PRE>
 * <H2>Description</H2>
 * This is a process with an infinite loop that waits for
 * a Object of type Number to be sent down each of its input channels.
 * The loop body then calculates the bitwise XOR on the values of the
 * two Numbers and writes the result as a new Integer to its output channel.

 *   <TR>
 *     <TH>in1,in2</TH>
 *     <TD>java.lang.Number</TD>
 *     <TD>
 *       Both Channels can accept data from any subclass of Number. It is
 *       possible to send Floats down one channel and Integers down the
 *       other. However all values will be converted to ints.

 * <H2>Example</H2>
 * The following example shows how to use the Xor process in a small program.
 * The program also uses some of the other building block processes.
 * It generates a sequence of numbers, XORs them with
 * <tt>Integer.MAX_VALUE</tt> to give a decending sequence of numbers
 * (from <tt>Integer.MAX_VALUE</tt>) and prints this on the screen.
