what does ^ do in python

Hi, In most of the languages ^ is used for 'to the power of'. In python we have ** for that. But what does ^ do? I could not get it just by using it ... some examples are: 1^1 returns 0 2^2 returns 0 1^4 returns 5 4^1 returns 5 3^5 returns 6 5^3 returns 6 .. just curious Thank you --
