Hi,
Still I dont get how I am supposed to understand the pipe and its task/

It's simply a bitwise OR.

Yes, but how does it get determined, which one actually gets returned?
The return statement returns a single value from a function context.
The pipe operator takes 2 values and bitwise ORs* them together. That
result is then returned to the caller. The pipe character in this
instance is not the same as in a shell.
