Subject: bit/byte operations

Hi,

 I am looking for bit operatios like left/right shift, rotate
 left/right, exor-ing/or-ing/and-ing/not-ing of single bits and groups
 of bits.

 The problem...I dont know, what keyword to feed into ri.

 I tried bit/byte/exor and suc but there was "nothing found".

 Where can I look for some informations?

 (or is it too contradictionary to look for such low level operations
 in such a highest level ( <<--only meant POSITIV!) language like
 Ruby?

 Thank you very much for any help in advance!
