The direction is down/right if the sign of num is negative, otherwise the direction is up/left. *) PROCEDURE SHIFT (val: ; num: INTEGER): ; (* Returns a bit sequence obtained from val by shifting up/left or down/right by the absolute value of num, introducing zeros as necessary. The direction is down/right if the sign of num is negative, otherwise the direction is up/left. *) PROCEDURE THROW (i: INTEGER) <* noreturn *> ; (* THROW is a GNU extension and was not part of the PIM or ISO standards. It throws an exception which will be caught by the EXCEPT block (assuming it exists). This is a compiler builtin function which interfaces to the GCC exception handling runtime system. GCC uses the term throw, hence the naming distinction between the GCC builtin and the Modula-2 runtime library procedure Raise. The later library procedure Raise will call SYSTEM.THROW after performing various housekeeping activities. *) PROCEDURE TBITSIZE () : CARDINAL ; (* Returns the minimum number of bits necessary to represent . This procedure function is only useful for determining the number of bits used for any type field within a packed RECORD. It is not particularly useful elsewhere since might be optimized for speed, for example a BOOLEAN could occupy a WORD. *) *) END SYSTEM.
