Pascal <-> Visual Basic .NET | Bitwise left shift

Pascal

shl

par1 shl par2

Used keywords: shl

Bitwise left shift the possible of use:

x := 16 shl 2;      { x = 64}
y := $f shl 5;     { y = 480}
z := (x shl y) shl 2;{ z = 256}

Even one example in what situations we can use the operation bitwise left shift:

i shl 4
$12AB shl j
128 shl (j shl(3 + i))

Visual Basic .NET

par1 << par2

Used keywords: <<

Bitwise left shift the possible of use:

x = 16 << 2      ' x = 64
y = &Hf << 5     ' y = 480
z = (x << y) << 2' z = 256

Even one example in what situations we can use the operation bitwise left shift:

i << 4
&H12AB << j
128 << (j <<(3 + i))
