Bit shifting is used in programming and has at least one variation in each programming language. Java has a single Logical right shift operator (>>). Bit shifting is a type of bitwise operation. Bit shifting is done on all the bits of a binary value which moves the bits by a definite number of places to the right. If the value 0100; (ie. 4) is shifted right, it becomes 0010; (ie. 2)which is again shifted to the right again it becomes 0001; or 1. The java.lang.Integer.rotateRight() is the method which returns the value we get by rotating the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value
atowards the right by a specified number of bits. Bits are shifted towards the right hand i.e., the lower-order.
Syntax :public static int rotateRight(int a, int shifts)Parameters:
The method takes two parameters:
rotateRight() method returns the value obtained by rotating the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value right by the specified number of bits. Below programs illustrate the Java.lang.Integer.rotateRight() method:
Program 1:For a positive number.
java
// Java program to illustrate the
// Java.lang.Integer.rotateRight() method
import java.lang.*;
public class Geeks {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int a = 64;
int shifts = 0;
while (shifts < 3)
// It will return the value obtained by rotating left
{
a = Integer.rotateRight(a, 2);
System.out.println(a);
shifts++;
}
}
}
Program 2:
For a negative number.
java
// Java program to illustrate the
// Java.lang.Integer.rotateRight() method
import java.lang.*;
public class Geeks {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int a = -165;
int shifts = 0;
while (shifts < 3)
// It will return the value obtained by rotating left
{
a = Integer.rotateRight(a, 2);
System.out.println(a);
shifts++;
}
}
}
