-Plain and long integer types support additional operations that make sense only
-for bit-strings.  Negative numbers are treated as their 2's complement value
-(for long integers, this assumes a sufficiently large number of bits that no

 The priorities of the binary bitwise operations are all lower than the numeric
 operations and higher than the comparisons; the unary operation ``~`` has the
 same priority as the other unary numeric operations (``+`` and ``-``).
