# Bits Library
|
||||
|
||||
Functions in the Bits library.
|
||||
|
||||
### @parent td/language
|
||||
|
||||
The binary numeral system represents numeric values using values 0 and 1. This is how almost all modern computers store data. Each 0 or 1 digit is called a binary digit, or bit for short.
|
||||
|
||||
The Bits library includes functions for bit-level manipulation of integers. In the [Touch Develop editor](/js/editor), click `bits` to see the following bit functions:
|
||||
|
||||
## Bitwise and, or, and xor functions
|
||||
|
||||
#### Syntax
|
||||
|
||||
bits `->` *and/or/xor* uint32 (x : [Number](/reference/types/number), y : [Number](/reference/types/number)) *returns* [Number](/reference/types/number)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
* x - an unsigned 32 bit integer [Number](/reference/types/number)
|
||||
* y - another unsigned 32 bit integer [Number](/reference/types/number)
|
||||
|
||||
### and uint32
|
||||
|
||||
performs bitwise AND; returns `1` at position i if both bits *x[i]* and *y[i]* are `1`, otherwise returns `0`.
|
||||
|
||||
### or uint32
|
||||
|
||||
performs bitwise OR; returns `1` at position *i* if either bit *x[i]* or *y[i]* is `1`, otherwise returns `0`.
|
||||
|
||||
### xor uint32
|
||||
|
||||
performs bitwise exclusive XOR; returns `1` at position *i* if *x[i]=1 and y[i]=0* or *x[i] = 0 and y[i] =1*; returns `0` otherwise
|
||||
|
||||
## Rotate left and rotate right
|
||||
|
||||
Rotate bits to the left or the right, by the specified number of positions.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Syntax
|
||||
|
||||
bits `->` rotate left unint32 (x : [Number](/reference/types/number), bits : [Number](/reference/types/number)) *returns* [Number](/reference/types/number)
|
||||
|
||||
bits `->` rotate right unint32 (x : [Number](/reference/types/number), bits : [Number](/reference/types/number)) *returns* [Number](/reference/types/number)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
* x - [Number](/reference/types/number);
|
||||
* bits - [Number](/reference/types/number);
|
||||
|
||||
## Shift left and shift right
|
||||
|
||||
Shift bits to the left or the right, by the specified number of positions.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Syntax
|
||||
|
||||
bits `->` shift left unint32 (x : [Number](/reference/types/number), bits : [Number](/reference/types/number)) *returns* [Number](/reference/types/number)
|
||||
|
||||
bits `->` shift right unint32 (x : [Number](/reference/types/number), bits : [Number](/reference/types/number)) *returns* [Number](/reference/types/number)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
* x - [Number](/reference/types/number);
|
||||
* bits - [Number](/reference/types/number);
