Modifying the lshift dunder

#1

We are modifying the lshift dunder lshift() to make it do our desired work… but what does the lshift dunder actually do??? As we add two objects like a + b [where a and b are two objects] then internally the dunder add() is called… then when the dunder lshift() is called?

hey @bihan,
you might know that there are operators , + ,<< , etc…
and as you said when we do + , it calls __add__ , similarly when we call lift shift operator << then it is called.

<< means , shifting the binary value to left by 1 or any number as stated.

I hope this helps.
