shift()

shift(Integer1[,#ofShifts]) ⇒ integer
Shifts the bits in a binary integer. You can
enter Integer1 in any number base; it is
converted automatically to a signed, 64-bit
binary form. If the magnitude of Integer1 is
too large for this form, a symmetric modulo
operation brings it within the range. For
more information, see ►Base2, page 17.
If #ofShifts is positive, the shift is to the
left. If #ofShifts is negative, the shift is to
the right. The default is −1 (shift right one
bit).
In a right shift, the rightmost bit is dropped
and 0 or 1 is inserted to match the leftmost
bit. In a left shift, the leftmost bit is
dropped and 0 is inserted as the rightmost
bit.
For example, in a right shift:
Each bit shifts right.
0b0000000000000111101011000011010
Inserts 0 if leftmost bit is 0,
or 1 if leftmost bit is 1.

Important: To enter a binary or
hexadecimal number, always use the 0b or
0hprefix (zero, not the letter O).
