What does it means int x<< 2 in C#

Question

x is a Integer values, I don't understand '<<' that kind of operator in C#

Answer 1

It's the bit shift operator. What this is doing is shifting x two bits to the left.

Consider the binary representation of two: 0010. If we shift it two bits to the left (2 << 2), we wind up with 1000 (zeroes are added to the end). Convert that back into decimal, and you have 8.
