It is possible to use shifting operators @code{<<}, @code{>>} on integer-type vectors. The operation is defined as following: @code{@{a0, a1, @dots{}, an@} >> @{b0, b1, @dots{}, bn@} == @{a0 >> b0, a1 >> b1, -@dots{}, an >> bn@}}@. Vector operands must have the same number of +@dots{}, an >> bn@}}@. Unlike OpenCL, values of @code{b} are not +implicitly taken modulo bit width of the base type @code{B}, and the behavior +is undefined if any @code{bi} is greater than or equal to @code{B}. + +In contrast to scalar operations in C and C++, operands of integer vector +operations do not undergo integer promotions. + +Operands of binary vector operations must have the same number of elements. For convenience, it is allowed to use a binary vector operation
