Rotating Bits
There are three general types of rotate functions on the HP-16C,
encompassing eight different functions.
¢ Rotate left and right ([RL], [RR]).
¢ Rotate left and right “through the carry bit” ([RLC], [RRC)).
* Rotate n places ([RLn], [RRn], [RLCn], [RRCn]).
Rotation. Pressing (rotate left) or (rotate right)
causes the contents of the X-register to rotate (or “circularly shift”)
one bit to the left or right. Bits shifted out of the word re-enter it at
the other end. The carry flag is set if a 1 bit is rotated around the
end, and is cleared if a zero is rotated around the end.
