Block type: shiftArithmetic
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| input ports | 1 input port(s) declared. |
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| output ports | 1 output port(s) declared. |
Arithmetic bit shift left/right by ShiftNumber (signed 64-bit).
| Module | nflow_blocks |
| Library | Logic / Bit Operations |
| Type | shiftArithmetic |
| Label | Shift Arithmetic |
Description
Arithmetic bit shift of the integer-valued input. ShiftDirection = "Left" multiplies by 2^ShiftNumber; "Right" performs a sign-preserving arithmetic right shift (dividing by 2^ShiftNumber, rounding toward negative infinity). Values are treated as signed 64-bit integers; the left shift is computed through unsigned arithmetic to stay well-defined. Element-wise over the input width.
Ports
Input(s)
| Port | Role | Side | Position |
|---|---|---|---|
| Port_1 | Numeric signal read by the block. | left | x=0, y=40 |
Output(s)
| Port | Role | Side | Position |
|---|---|---|---|
| Port_1 | Numeric signal produced by the block. | right | x=90, y=40 |
Parameters
| Parameter | Default value |
|---|---|
ShiftDirection |
Left |
ShiftNumber |
1 |
Block Characteristics
| Block type | shiftArithmetic |
