It gives me this number in cell F7. Due to the limits of the project I am working on, I can only use python, so I cannot used unsigned. I convert this number to binary
-1111111111111111111111101011010
this obviously will not give me a proper global id after I clear the flags. However, I can take it’s signed 2’s complement, and it returns
10000000000000000000000010100110
This can be put ‘deflagged’ and decoded to get the global id, but I am not sure that it is returning the right number.
