Java Right-shift Assignment
In Java, Right-shift Assignment Operator is used to right shift value in the variable (left operand) by a value (right operand) and assign the result back to this variable (left operand).
In this tutorial, we will learn how to use Right-shift Assignment operator in Java, with examples.
The syntax to right shift a value in variable x
by 2
places and assign the result to x
using Right-shift Assignment Operator is
x >>= 2
Example
In the following example, we take a variable x
with an initial value of 5
, add right shift by 2
places, and assign the result to x
, using Right-shift Assignment Operator.
Main.java
public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { int x = 5; //right-shift assignment x >>= 2; System.out.println("x : " + x); } }
Output
x : 1
