Prefixes 0b, 0o, and 0x are accepted where a field says “integer”. Underscores and visual spacing are ignored where appropriate. Your values stay in this browser.

Enter valid values to see the result.
Your entries are calculated in this browser and are not submitted to 365CALCS.COM.
Choose the direction, operation, representation, or parity convention when one is provided.
Enter the labelled values and an explicit word size, base, polynomial, or encoding option where required.
Read the primary result together with its alternate representations and stated convention.
Calculation method
Apply the declared binary rule
A left shift by n multiplies an unbounded unsigned value by 2^n; fixed width discards overflow bits.
The calculator validates every digit against its numeral base, keeps integer and bitwise work exact with arbitrary-precision integers, and limits fixed-width operations to the selected word.
Worked example
Worked binary example
00101100 shifted left by 2 becomes 10110000.
A left shift by n multiplies an unbounded unsigned value by 2^n; fixed width discards overflow bits.
Supported inputs
Precision and limits
Input interpretation
Binary-only fields accept 0 and 1. General integer fields accept decimal plus 0b, 0o, or 0x prefixes. Base conversion supports bases 2 through 36.
Word size and output
Most fixed-width tools support 1–256 bits. Results expose signedness, truncation, parity, or encoding conventions whenever those choices change the meaning.
Local privacy
