    <h1>msb()</h1>
    <p>
      Calculates the most significant byte of a 14 bit value.
      High-end bits 8 to 14 of argument are bit-shifted down by 7 bits
      and returned as result by this function.
    </p>

    <h3>Function Prototype</h3>
    <p/>
    <code lang="nksp">
msb(??number??)

    <h3>Remarks</h3>
    <p>
      This functions neither allows finalness,
      nor standard unit types for its argument <code>??number??</code>.
