operator' : right shift by too large amount, data loss
A right shift operation was too large an amount. All significant bits are shifted out and the result will always be zero.
The following sample generates C4333.
// C4333.cpp
// compile with: /c /W1

return c >> 8; // C4333
// try the following line instead
// return c >> 4; // OK
}
