The Shift Operators

: Right shift The general forms for these operators are shown here: value < num-bits  value > num-bits A 'left shift' shift all bits to the left and a zero bit to be brought in on the right. A 'right shift' causes all bits to be shifted right one position. In the case of a right shift on an unsigned value, a zero is brought in on the left. In the case of a right shift on a signed value, the sign bit is preserved.
