## bit.arshift()
Arithmetic right shift a number equivalent to `value >> shift` in C.
####Syntax
#### Syntax
`bit.arshift(value, shift)`
####Parameters
#### Parameters
- `value` the value to shift
- `shift` positions to shift
####Returns
#### Returns
the number shifted right (arithmetically)
## bit.band()
Bitwise AND, equivalent to `val1 & val2 & ... & valn` in C.
####Syntax
#### Syntax
`bit.band(val1, val2 [, ... valn])`
####Parameters
#### Parameters
- `val1` first AND argument
- `val2` second AND argument
- `...valn` ...nth AND argument
####Returns
#### Returns
the bitwise AND of all the arguments (number)
## bit.bit()
Generate a number with a 1 bit (used for mask generation). Equivalent to `1 << position` in C.
####Syntax
#### Syntax
`bit.bit(position)`
####Parameters
#### Parameters
`position` position of the bit that will be set to 1
####Returns
#### Returns
a number with only one 1 bit at position (the rest are set to 0)
## bit.bnot()
Bitwise negation, equivalent to `~value in C.
Bitwise negation, equivalent to `~value in C.`
####Syntax
#### Syntax
`bit.bnot(value)`
####Parameters
#### Parameters
`value` the number to negate
####Returns
#### Returns
the bitwise negated value of the number
## bit.bor()
Bitwise OR, equivalent to `val1 | val2 | ... | valn` in C.
####Syntax
#### Syntax
`bit.bor(val1, val2 [, ... valn])`
####Parameters
#### Parameters
- `val1` first OR argument.
- `val2` second OR argument.
- `...valn` ...nth OR argument
####Returns
#### Returns
the bitwise OR of all the arguments (number)
## bit.bxor()
Bitwise XOR, equivalent to `val1 ^ val2 ^ ... ^ valn` in C.
####Syntax
#### Syntax
`bit.bxor(val1, val2 [, ... valn])`
####Parameters
#### Parameters
- `val1` first XOR argument
- `val2` second XOR argument
- `...valn` ...nth XOR argument
####Returns
#### Returns
the bitwise XOR of all the arguments (number)
## bit.clear()
Clear bits in a number.
####Syntax
#### Syntax
`bit.clear(value, pos1 [, ... posn])`
####Parameters
#### Parameters
- `value` the base number
- `pos1` position of the first bit to clear
- `...posn` position of thet nth bit to clear
####Returns
#### Returns
the number with the bit(s) cleared in the given position(s)
## bit.isclear()
Test if a given bit is cleared.
####Syntax
#### Syntax
`bit.isclear(value, position)`
####Parameters
#### Parameters
- `value` the value to test
- `position` bit position to test
####Returns
#### Returns
true if the bit at the given position is 0, false othewise
## bit.isset()
Test if a given bit is set.
####Syntax
#### Syntax
`bit.isset(value, position)`
####Parameters
#### Parameters
- `value` the value to test
- `position` bit position to test
####Returns
#### Returns
true if the bit at the given position is 1, false otherwise
