    Can you please explain what this code exactly does? esp the part after &

    wp-admin/includes/file.php

    line: 1421

    define('FS_CHMOD_DIR', ( fileperms( ABSPATH ) & 0777 | 0755 ) );

    I need to understand this part due to some error with my code right now. Sorry for my immature query!

    Thanks.

    There is a note above that which define it as:

    // Set the permission constants if not already set.

    I was asking about explanation of how the bitwise operators are functioning here (signified by the part of my original question “esp the part after &”).
