First iteration of binary operators added

[Bagolly]

Binary operators

The first implementation of binary operators have been added to WHISKR.

The available operators currently include:

• AND
• OR
• NOT
• XOR
• LSHIFT
• RSHIFT

All operators have passed basic testing successfully, but might not be bug-free in certain situations.

Usage

• Binary operators can be used by calling the appropriate function, eg.: and(10,3) will return 2 and or(30, 5) will return 31

  • All operators use the C# implementation for the calculation, so should work as expected.

Limitations & Warnings

While binary operations in C# are permitted on any integral data type (byte, int, long, etc.) they will always be cast to long during parsing, except for right shifting, where the shift value will be cast to int. (Cannot shift a 64-bit number by another 64-bit number).

Cannot shift a 64-bit number by another 64-bit number

A 64-bit number can be shifted by another 64-bit number, as long as its value does not exceed 63
