Caesar Cipher Shift
Implement a function to apply a Caesar cipher shift to a string, preserving case and ignoring non-letters.
Caesar Cipher Shift
Write a function that shifts letters in a string by a given amount, preserving case and ignoring non-letters.
Rotate String Right
Implement a function that rotates a given string to the right by a specified number of positions, handling shifts larger than the string length.
Multiply without multiply
Write a function that multiplies two integers using only addition, subtraction, and bit shifts — no * operator.
Gray Code Encode
Implement a function that converts a non-negative integer to its Gray code representation using bitwise XOR and shift.
Divide using shifts
Implement division of two integers using only bit shifts and arithmetic, without using division or modulo operators.
