Several functions were replaced with "flipped" versions in Elm 0.18 -- here are the new versions.
Shift bits to the left by a given offset, filling new bits with zeros. This can be used to multiply numbers by powers of two.
shiftLeftBy 1 5 == 10
shiftLeftBy 5 1 == 32
Shift bits to the right by a given offset, filling new bits with whatever is the topmost bit. This can be used to divide numbers by powers of two.
shiftRightBy 1 32 == 16
shiftRightBy 2 32 == 8
shiftRightBy 1 -32 == -16
This is called an arithmetic right shift, often written (>>), and sometimes called a sign-propagating right shift because it fills empty spots with copies of the highest bit.
Shift bits to the right by a given offset, filling new bits with zeros.
shiftRightZfBy 1 32 == 16
shiftRightZfBy 2 32 == 8
shiftRightZfBy 1 -32 == 2147483632
This is called an logical right shift, often written (>>>), and sometimes called a zero-fill right shift because it fills empty spots with zeros.
