bitwise.ulshift() function	`bitwise.ulshift()` shifts bits in `a` left by `b` bits. Both `a` and `b` are [unsigned integers](/flux/v0.x/data-types/basic/uint/).	flux_0_x_ref name parent bitwise.ulshift bitwise	401	/flux/v0.x/data-types/basic/uint/	bitwise

bitwise.ulshift() shifts bits in a left by b bits. Both a and b are unsigned integers.

import "experimental/bitwise"

bitwise.ulshift(a: uint(v: 12), b: uint(v: 21))

// Returns 25165824 (uint)

Parameters

a

Left operand.

b

Number of bits to shift.
