Question: Write a function 'xor' in C that takes in two q objects (both integers), performs the bitwise XOR between them and returns the result integer as a q object. This function should be exportable to q.

Explanation: Create a function that takes in two K objects. Check their types, if either are not integers then return an error (ex. 'type'). Perform a bitwise XOR between the two numbers with the xor operator '^' and return the result as a K object.
