Much to my dismay, I''m being forced to read VB at computer class in my school so I was wondering if you can bitshift an integer in VB like you do in C with "<<" or ">>" (I''m guessing no, but I''d like to know for sure...) No game will ever rule more than CBT!

I don''t think VB has bitshift operators, use multiplication and division instead (2 << 2 = 2 * 4, 2 >> 2 = 2 / 4).

Most modern compilers automatically convert multiplication and division into their bit shifting counterparts, so you probably have no need to do explicit do so.

And considering VB is platform dependant you will most likely always use the same compiler, so you don''t have to worry certain compilers failing to do so.
