BitExtensionsBitRotL(UInt32, Int32) Method

Performs rightwise bit-rotation for the specified number of rotations.

Namespace: GSF
Assembly: GSF.Core (in GSF.Core.dll) Version: 2.4.207-beta+1781b796b2aa7a54013a031eb432fe4ccee31867
Syntax
public static uint BitRotL(
	this uint value,
	int rotations
)
View Source

Parameters

value  UInt32
Value used for bit-rotation.
rotations  Int32
Number of rotations to perform.

Return Value

UInt32
Value that has its bits rotated to the right the specified number of times.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type UInt32. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
Remarks
Actual rotation direction is from a big-endian perspective - this is an artifact of the native .NET bit shift operators. As a result bits may actually appear to rotate right on little-endian architectures.
