But you are using it wrong.  decbin() returns a string with a binary
pattern in it.  You can't shift a string.  You shift numbers.  If you
already know the decimal value of the number you want to shift you don't
have to do anything.  I suggested bindec() because I thought you wanted to
provide a binary representation of the number for some reason.
