Example: Querying Input Argument 16 with the ROTATELEFT Function

In the following query, the input argument 16 has a data type of BYTEINT and a binary representation of 00010000. When this value is rotated left by two bits, the result in binary is 01000000. This value translates to a BYTEINT value of 64, which is the result returned by the query.

SELECT ROTATELEFT(16,2);

Example: Querying Input Argument 64 with the ROTATELEFT Function

In the following query, the input argument 64 has a data type of BYTEINT and a binary representation of 01000000. When this value is rotated left by three bits, the result in binary is 00000010. This value translates to a BYTEINT value of 2, which is the result returned by the query.

SELECT ROTATELEFT(64,3);
