How would you go about doing a bit shift in NASM on a register? I read the manual and it only seems to mention these operators >>, <<. When I try to use them NASM complains about the shift operator working on scalar values. Can you explain what a scalar value is and give an example of how to use >> and <<. Also, I thought there were a shr or shl operators. If they do exist can you give an example of how to use them? Thank you for your time.
