Bit shifting with overflow protection using overflow operator "&".
|
Approach is consistent with standard overflow operators &+, &-, &*, &/
|
and introduce new overflow operators for shifting: &<<, &>>
|
|
Note: Works with unsigned integers values only
|
|
Usage
|
|
var i = 1 // init
|
var j = i &<< 2 //shift left
|
j &<<= 2 //shift left and assign
|

|
This fuctonality is now implemented as part of Swift 3, SE-0104 https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0104-improved-integers.md
