_ROR

The _ROR function is used to rotate the bits of a numerical value to the right. A rotation (or circular shift) is an operation similar to shift (_SHL and _SHR) except that the bits that fall off at one end are put back to the other end.
Syntax
- result = _ROR(numericalVariable, numericalValue)
Parameters
- numericalVariable is the variable to shift the bits of and can be of the following types: _BYTE, INTEGER, LONG, or _INTEGER64.
- Integer values can be signed or _UNSIGNED.
- numericalValue is the number of places to rotate the bits.
- While 0 is a valid value it will have no affect on the variable being rotated.
Description
- In right rotation, the bits that fall off at right end are put back at left end.
- The type of variable used to store the results should match the type of the variable being shifted.
Availability
- QB64-PE v3.1.0 and up
