Sample Shift Left and Shift Right Operator in C#

In this post, I would like to show about shift left and shift right operator in C#.

1. Shift left operator:  x<< y = x * 2 ^y  

   private void btnAnswerLeft_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

   {

       int x = 2;

       int y = 3;

       int result;

       result = (x << y);

       // 2 << 3 ==> 2 * 2^3 =16 

      MessageBox.Show(result,"Answer,MessageBoxButtons.OK, 

      MessageBoxIcon.Information, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1);
   }

1. Shift Right operator:  x>> y = x / 2 ^y   

 private void btnAnswerLeft_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

    int x = 8;

    int y = 2;

    int result;

    result = (x >> y);

    // 8 >> 2 ==> 8 / 2^2 =2

    MessageBox.Show(result,"Answer",MessageBoxButtons.OK,
