HI all, I found this question from Whizlabs software, can anybody explain me the answer. I dont have a clear concept of shift operators. System.out.println(-1>>>1); The answer is 2147483647 Thanks in advance Latha
-1 is the following number in binary: 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 Shift to the right by one bit to get: 0111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 -> a 1 falls off the end here.
The zero on the left appears because we are using the >>> operator (compare with what the >> operator does) What's the decimal equivalent of the result?
