shiftOut()
==========
Shift out a byte of data, one bit at a time.

Library Documentation
---------------------
.. doxygenfunction:: shiftOut
Discussion
----------
This is a software implementation. There is also a hardware :ref:`SPI
<spi>` library available which will be faster and consume less CPU
cycles than this function.
Note that the ``dataPin`` and ``clockPin`` must already be configured
to :ref:`OUTPUT <lang-constants-output>` mode by a call to
:ref:`pinMode() <lang-pinmode>`.
Also note that since shiftOut() outputs 1 byte (8 bits) at a time, it
requires multiple steps to output values larger than 255.
Examples
--------
To use these examples, replace ``dataPin`` and ``clockPin`` with the
numbers of the pins you want to use::
/* MSBFIRST example */
uint16 data = 500;
// shift out high byte
shiftOut(dataPin, clockPin, MSBFIRST, (data >> 8));
// shift out low byte
shiftOut(dataPin, clockPin, MSBFIRST, data);
/* LSBFIRST serial */
data = 500;
// shift out low byte
shiftOut(dataPin, clockPin, LSBFIRST, data);
// shift out high byte
shiftOut(dataPin, clockPin, LSBFIRST, (data >> 8));
Arduino Tutorial Example
------------------------
This Arduino example runs unmodified on the Maple. For accompanying
circuit, see the `tutorial on controlling a 74HC595 shift register
<http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ShiftOut>`_.
