Rebol Programming/shift

USAGE:

SHIFT data bits /left /logical /part length 

DESCRIPTION:

Perform a bit shift operation. Right shift (decreasing) by default.

SHIFT is a native value.

ARGUMENTS

• data -- (Type: integer binary)
• bits -- Number of bits to shift (Type: integer)

REFINEMENTS

• /left -- Shift bits to the left (increasing)
• /logical -- Use logical shift (unsigned, fill with zero)
• /part -- Shift only part of a series.
  • length -- (Type: integer)
