[arshift]
description = [[
Returns the number `x` shifted `disp` bits to the right. Negative displacements shift to the left.

This shift operation is what is called arithmetic shift. Vacant bits on the left are filled with copies of the higher bit of `x`; vacant bits on the right are filled with zeros.

description = 'Returns the bitwise *and* of its operands.'

[bnot]
description = [[
Returns the bitwise negation of `x`.
