>>                       Bitwise Shift Right

 exp1 >> exp2            bitwise shift right
 exp1                    any integer value
 exp2                    any integer value; treated as unsigned

    The >> operator returns exp1 shifted to the right by exp2 bits, with
    the vacated lefthand bits filled with zeros.  For example:

           j = 0x0F71;
           i = j >> 4;          /* i == 0x00F7 */

       Note:    The << operator does not alter exp1.
