BitReset
Gets the value of an integer with a specified bit cleared.
result = BitReset( value, bit_number )
value
Returns the integer value with the specified bit cleared.
This macro expands to a copy of the integer value with the specified bit_number cleared (to off, or `0`). Behaves as `value And Not (1 Shl bit_number)`.
The valid range of values for bit_number depends on the size, in bits, of `TypeOf(value)`, which is `0` through `SizeOf(value) * 8 - 1`. See Standard Datatype Limits for a table of the standard datatypes and their sizes.

Description

Example
Print BitReset(5,0)
Print Hex(BitReset(&h8000000000000001,63))
Print Hex(BitReset(&h8000000000000001,63))
will produce the output:
