I am trying this on an Arduino Mega. I get some unexpected results shifting a bit in a 32bit value; My initial goal was to 'emulate' an array of 24 booleans. I was hoping to store them in one unsigned Long. It all worked well but got some unexpected results, that is why I wrote this little script …
