LSL16

Result = LSL16(ValueToShift, Bits)

Parameters:     ValueToShift=Value that will be shifted     Bits=Number of bits the value will be shifted

Returns:     Result = Shifted bits

LSL16 is a logical operator that performs a left bit shift upon the bottom 16 bits of a 32bit integer value. Since the operation is only shifting the bottom word (bottom 16bits) of the integer, the top word will not be affected by the shift. FACTS:      * LSL32, LSL16, LSL8, LSR32, LSR16 and LSR8 replicate the sign bit of the value they shift      * LSL16(ValueToShift,Bits) is equivalent of result = (ValueToShift and $ffff0000) or ((ValueToShift and $ffff) * 2^Bits) Mini Tutorial:       Showing the effect of the logical left shift function. Try different value, or different numbers of bits to shift. Replace LSL16 with LSL32 or LSL8    ; Value that will be shifted   Value = 42    ; display this value in binary form   Print Bin$(Value)    ; shift value by 9 bits   Value = LSL16(Value, 9)    ; Display new value in binary form   Print Bin$(Value)       ; Try a bigger value   Value = $ffff00AA      Print Bin$(Value)    ; shift value by 9 bits   Value = LSL16(Value, 9)    ; Display new value in binary form   Print Bin$(Value)       ; Display the Screen and wait for the user to press a key   Sync   WaitKey    This example would output.      %00000000000000000000000000101010   %00000000000000000101010000000000   %11111111111111110000000010101010   %11111111111111110101010000000000
