1. A method, comprising:

  • determining, using sensing circuitry coupled to a pair of complementary sense lines of an array of memory cells, an exclusive OR (XOR) value of data stored in a number of memory cells coupled to a first sense line of the pair without transferring the data from the array using an input/output line, wherein determining the XOR value comprises;

    performing an AND operation on;

    a resultant value of a NAND operation performed on a first data value stored in a first memory cell coupled to the first sense line and a second data value stored in a second memory cell coupled to the first sense line; and

    a resultant value of an OR operation performed on the first data value and the second data value.
