n←(RB)26:31
r←ROTL((RS), n)
if n < 32 then
m←MASK(0, 31 – n)
else
m←320
(RA) ←r∧m
Thecontents of register RS are shifted left by the number of bits specified by the contents of register RB26:31.
Bits shifted left out of the most significant bit are lost, and 0-bits fill vacated bit positions on the right. The
result is placed into register RA.
Note that if RB26 = 1, then the shift amount is 32 bits or more, and thus all bits are shifted out such that
register RA is set to zero.
