operator << method
Shift the bits of this integer to the left by shiftAmount
.
Shifting to the left makes the number larger, effectively multiplying
the number by pow(2, shiftIndex)
.
There is no limit on the size of the result. It may be relevant to limit intermediate values by using the "and" operator with a suitable mask.
It is an error if shiftAmount
is negative.
Returns i16
Implementation
@override
i16 operator <<(dynamic other) {
if (other is integer) {
return i16(value << other.value);
} else if (other is int) {
return i16(value << other);
} else {
throw Exception('Invalid type for operand: ${other.runtimeType}');
}
}
