Ruby program to demonstrate the bitwise left-shift (<<) operator

Program/Source Code:

The source code to demonstrate the bitwise left-shift "<<" operator is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

# Ruby program to demonstrate the 
# bitwise left-shift "<<" operator

num1=4
num2=3
res =0

res = num1 << num2;

print num1," << ", num2," = ",res

Output:

4 << 3 = 32

Explanation:

In the above program, we created three integer variables num1, num2, res that are initialized with 4, 3, 0 respectively. Then we performed a bitwise left shift operation using the "<<" operator and printed the result using the print() function.

Evolution of expression:

res = 4 << 3
res = 4 * (23)
res = 4 * 8
res = 32
