\title{Bitwise Shift Operator (to the Left or Right)}
\description{
  These functions shift integers bitwise to the left or to the right,
  returning \emph{unsigned int}egers, i.e., values in
  \eqn{{0, 1, \ldots, 2^{32}-1}}.
}
\usage{
bitShiftL(a, b)
a \%<<\% b
bitShiftR(a, b)
a \%>>\% b
}
\arguments{
  \item{a}{numeric vector (integer valued), to be shifted.}
  \item{b}{integer (valued) vector.  Internally, only \code{b \%\% 32}
    is used, e.g, \code{b = 32} is equivalent to \code{b = 0}, i.e.,
    \emph{no} shift.  This corresponds to \emph{cyclic} rotation (to the
    left or right).}
}
%% \details{
%% }
\value{
  non-negative integer valued numeric vector of maximum length of
  \code{a} or \code{b} containing
  the value of \code{a} shifted to the left or right by \code{b} bits.
  NA is returned wherever the value of \code{a} or \code{b} is not finite,
  or, wherever the magnitude of \code{a} is greater than or equal to
  \eqn{2^{32}}.

 bitShiftL( -1,       1) == 4294967294

 bitShiftL(47, 32) # is 47
