<h3 class="section">8.155 <code>LSHIFT</code> — Left shift bits</h3>
<p><a name="index-LSHIFT-809"></a><a name="index-bits_002c-shift-left-810"></a>
<dl>
<dt><em>Description</em>:<dd><code>LSHIFT</code> returns a value corresponding to <var>I</var> with all of the
bits shifted left by <var>SHIFT</var> places. If the absolute value of
<var>SHIFT</var> is greater than <code>BIT_SIZE(I)</code>, the value is undefined.
Bits shifted out from the left end are lost; zeros are shifted in from
the opposite end.
<p>This function has been superseded by the <code>ISHFT</code> intrinsic, which
is standard in Fortran 95 and later, and the <code>SHIFTL</code> intrinsic,
which is standard in Fortran 2008 and later.
<br><dt><em>Standard</em>:<dd>GNU extension
<br><dt><em>Class</em>:<dd>Elemental function
<br><dt><em>Syntax</em>:<dd><code>RESULT = LSHIFT(I, SHIFT)</code>
<br><dt><em>Arguments</em>:<dd>
<p><table summary=""><tr align="left"><td valign="top" width="15%"><var>I</var> </td><td valign="top" width="70%">The type shall be <code>INTEGER</code>.
<br></td></tr><tr align="left"><td valign="top" width="15%"><var>SHIFT</var> </td><td valign="top" width="70%">The type shall be <code>INTEGER</code>.
<br></td></tr></table>
<br><dt><em>Return value</em>:<dd>The return value is of type <code>INTEGER</code> and of the same kind as
<var>I</var>.
