Overview
Shift left (shl) performs a left bit-shift operation (opposite of shr).
E.g
Command is: 00000100 shl 2 Action is: 00000100 <- 00 (00 gets added to the right of the value; left 00 "disappears") Result is: 00010000
Clear a bit
function ClearBit( const aValue, aBitNumber : integer ) : integer;
begin
result := aValue and not( 1 shl aBitNumber );
end;If you call ClearBit(%1111,1), then you get %1101 (%1111 = 15 and %1101 = 13).
If you call ClearBit(13,2), then you get 9 (9 = %1001) .
