Bit Shifting

Abstract

---

• Moving the bits to the left side or right side, by a specified number of bits

MIPS Bit Shifting

---

• sll is multiplication with $2^n$, where $n$ is the number of bits we shift
• srl is division with $2^n$, where $n$ is the number of bits we shift

Maximum number of bits we can shift

$31$, because the Register is 32 bits
