Android notification flags require pipe?

I'm trying to set an android notification flag like Notification.FLAG_NO_CLEAR. When searching online I see myNotification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_NO_CLEAR; I realize that it needs the |= or else it doesn't work... but my curiosity has gotten the best of me because I've never seen it before.

It's not a pipe, it's a bitwise operator.

It's used instead of multiple flags for a single operation.
