bitwise.slshift() function

bitwise.slshift() shifts the bits in a left by b bits. Both a and b are integers.

Function type signature

(a: int, b: int) => int

Parameters

a

(Required) Left hand operand.

b

(Required) Number of bits to shift.

Examples

• Shift bits left in an integer
• Shift bits left in integers in a stream of tables

Shift bits left in an integer

import "bitwise"

bitwise.slshift(a: 1234, b: 2)// Returns 4936

Shift bits left in integers in a stream of tables

import "bitwise"
import "sampledata"

sampledata.int()
    |> map(fn: (r) => ({r with _value: bitwise.slshift(a: r._value, b: 3)}))
