Shifts a BigInteger value a specified number of bits to the left.

public:
 static System::Numerics::BigInteger operator <<(System::Numerics::BigInteger value, int shift);

public:
 static System::Numerics::BigInteger operator <<(System::Numerics::BigInteger value, int shift) = System::Numerics::IShiftOperators<System::Numerics::BigInteger, int, System::Numerics::BigInteger>::op_LeftShift;

public static System.Numerics.BigInteger operator << (System.Numerics.BigInteger value, int shift);

static member ( <<< ) : System.Numerics.BigInteger * int -> System.Numerics.BigInteger

Public Shared Operator << (value As BigInteger, shift As Integer) As BigInteger

Parameters

value: BigInteger

The value whose bits are to be shifted.

shift: Int32

The number of bits to shift value to the left.

Returns

BigInteger

A value that has been shifted to the left by the specified number of bits.

Implements

LeftShift(TSelf, TOther)

Remarks

The LeftShift method defines the operation of the bitwise left-shift operator for BigInteger values. It enables code such as the following:

BigInteger number = BigInteger.Parse("-9047321678449816249999312055");
Console.WriteLine("Shifting {0} left by:", number);
for (int ctr = 0; ctr <= 16; ctr++)
{
   BigInteger newNumber = number << ctr;
   Console.WriteLine(" {0,2} bits: {1,35} {2,30}",
                     ctr, newNumber, newNumber.ToString("X"));
}

Note

Unlike the bitwise left-shift operation with integer primitives, the LeftShift method preserves the sign of the original BigInteger value.

Languages that do not support custom operators can perform a bitwise left-shift operation by multiplying value by BigInteger.Pow(2, shift). The following example shows that the results are identical to the results of using this operator.

BigInteger number = BigInteger.Parse("-9047321678449816249999312055");
Console.WriteLine("Shifting {0} left by:", number);
for (int ctr = 0; ctr <= 16; ctr++)
{
   BigInteger newNumber = BigInteger.Multiply(number, BigInteger.Pow(2, ctr));
   Console.WriteLine(" {0,2} bits: {1,35} {2,30}",
                     ctr, newNumber, newNumber.ToString("X"));
}
