The right-shift assignment operator.

lhs >>= expr

Where:

lhs

A storage location, property, or indexer.

expr

An expression.

Remarks

An expression of the form

x >>= y

is evaluated as

x = x >> y

except that x is only evaluated once. The >> operator shifts x right by an amount specified by y.

The >>= operator cannot be overloaded directly, but user-defined types can overload the >> operator (see operator).

Example

// cs_operator_right_shift_assignment.cs
using System;
class Test 
{
   public static void Main() 
   {
      int a = 1000;
      a >>= 4;
      Console.WriteLine(a);
   }
}

Output

62
