Learn and Master C Programming - Bit-wise Right Shifting Operator (>>)

The video tutorial explains the concept of right shifting a number in binary, equating it to dividing by two. It details the process of moving bits from left to right, inserting zeros from the left, and provides an example using the number 4. The tutorial further explains that continued right shifts will eventually result in zero.

What is the result of shifting the number 4 to the right by 1?

• 4

• 2

• 3

• 1

What happens to the bits during a right shift operation?

• Bits remain in the same position

• Bits are moved to the right

• Bits are deleted

• Bits are moved to the left

What is inserted from the left side during a right shift?

• Ones

• Twos

• Zeros

• Threes

What is the eventual result of continuously shifting a number to the right?

• The number becomes zero

• The number remains unchanged

• The number becomes negative

• The number doubles

How is right shifting a number by one related to division?

• It is equivalent to adding two

• It is equivalent to subtracting two

• It is equivalent to dividing by two

• It is equivalent to multiplying by two
