BitMaskClear

Performs a bitwise mask clear operation.

Method Signature

BitMaskClear(number=[integer], start=[integer], length=[integer])

Arguments

Argument	Type	Required	Description	Default
number	integer	true	32-bit signed integer on which the mask clear operation is performed.
start	integer	true	Start bit for the clear mask (Integer in the range 0-31, inclusive).
length	integer	true	Length of bits in the clear mask (Integer in the range 0-31, inclusive).

Examples

Bitwise Mask Clear

Uses the bitMaskClear function to clear (setting to 0) each of the corresponding bits

Run Example

bitMaskClear( 3, 0, 1 );

Result: 2

Using non zero start parameter

Run Example

bitMaskClear( 3, 1, 1 );

Result: 1

Using non zero mask start and length parameters

Run Example

bitMaskClear( 10, 1, 2 );

Result: 8

Additional Examples

Run Example

writeOutput( bitMaskClear( 255, 5, 5 ) );
writeOutput( "<br>" );
writeOutput( bitMaskClear( 255, 0, 4 ) );
