Example: excel vba create a bitmask

'VBA function to create a bitmask in a Long Integer:

'The above function is fast. But for the fastest possible native code, 
'exponentiation (slow) can be optimized, by a lookup table. The following
'function uses the LeftShift() function, which is highly optimized. It is
'literally a hundred times faster:
