This functions performs a bitwise circular right-rotation on the integer value by integer n positions. See Bitwise operation for more details.
Syntax
int bitRRotate ( int value, int n )
Required arguments
- value: The value you want to perform the rotation on.
 - n: The amount of positions to rotate the value by.
 
Returns
Returns the circular right-rotated value as integer.
Example

ClientThis example adds the clientside command /rightrotate [value] [positions = 1], which will print the result from the function bitRRotate.
function getNumberAsBitString(value)
    if type(value) ~= 'number' then
        return false
    else
        local binary = ''
        for field = 31, 0, -1 do
            binary = binary .. bitExtract(value, field)
            if field % 4 == 0 then
                binary = binary ..' '
            end
        end
        return binary
    end
end
addCommandHandler('rightrotate',
    function (command, value, positions)
        if type(value) ~= 'string' or value:len() == 0 then
            return outputChatBox('* Syntax: /rightrotate [value] [positions = 1]')
        end
        if type(positions) ~= 'string' or positions:len() == 0 then
            positions = 1
        end
        local result = bitRRotate(tonumber(value), tonumber(positions))
        local binary = getNumberAsBitString(result)
        outputChatBox('* Decimal: '.. result ..', Binary: '.. binary)
    end
)
If you trigger the command with /rightrotate 0xFF0000 16 you will receive as response:
* Decimal: 255, Binary: 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 1111 1111
