please explain shift operation on negative numbers.
i executed a demo as below:
Code:
char c=-1,d,e;
d=c9;
it yields d=0 ,which i could understand as it works like a normal shift operation where bits are discarded as they move out of the word and bits on right side get filled by all 0's,
and e=-1,
and this i could not figure out as even after shifting it by 9 bits it holds the value intact.
any relevant explanation or reference would be a great help.
how is it possible if it is thought from a variable point of view?? computer does not discriminate between c and e... variable can be anything...can you post a full proof code so that i can test that in my system...?
Linear Mode
