It is frequently required to obtain the highest order bit of an integral
type (long, int, short or char types).
- SDCC recognizes the following expression to yield the highest order bit
+ Also obtaining any other order bit is not uncommon.
+ SDCC recognizes the following expressions to yield the highest order bit
and generates optimized code for it, e.g.:
