How does this code works? Please somebody explain.x=5 print(x>>2<<x)

Question

x=5
print(x>>2<<x)
Result: 32

Which operator is this?

Answer 1

shift operator , left shift(<<) and right shift(>>) , used for shifting bits .

5 has a binary value of 101 , so x>>2 will shift it right by two bits which will result in binary value of 1(1 in decimal).

Now we are left with 1<<x which will shift the binary value of 1 left by 5 bits .

So binary value 1 will be become 100000 (32 in decimal)
