Integers support additional operations that make sense only for bit-strings.
Negative numbers are treated as their 2's complement value (this assumes a
sufficiently large number of bits that no overflow occurs during the operation).
Bitwise operations only make sense only for integers. Negative numbers are
treated as their 2's complement value (this assumes a sufficiently large number
of bits that no overflow occurs during the operation).
The priorities of the binary bitwise operations are all lower than the numeric
operations and higher than the comparisons; the unary operation ``~`` has the
same priority as the other unary numeric operations (``+`` and ``-``).
This table lists the bit-string operations sorted in ascending priority
