>>= Operator (C# Reference)

Visual Studio 2010

The right-shift assignment operator.

An expression of the form

Copy 
x >>= y

is evaluated as

Copy 
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).

C#
Copy 

class MainClass8
{
    static void Main()
    {
        int a = 1000;
        a >>= 4;
        Console.WriteLine(a);
    }
}
/*
Output:
62
*/
