Synopsis

Usage:

x << j

- j
- I, a real interval
Outputs:
- the number obtained from x by shifting its binary representation leftward j places
- a real interval, an interval containing all shifts of the binary representations elements of I by j places leftward

i1 : 256 << 5

o1 = 8192

i2 : 256. << 555
