What does the term 'signed overflow' refer to in binary arithmetic?
Arithmetic right shift is a division operation that effectively divides the number by
for each shift.
Shift Left
Arithmetic Shift
Binary shift
Arithmetic right shift is performed on signed numbers where the leftmost bit represents the
of the number.
Logical shifts are often used in computer programming to manipulate
numbers.
What is the result of a logical right shift operation?
When performing a logical shift to the left, the most significant bit is moved out and the least significant bit is filled with a
.
What is overflow in binary addition?
What happens when an arithmetic left shift causes an overflow?
Which bitwise operator is used for left shift operations?
In arithmetic left shift, the bits that are shifted out are lost and the spaces at the right end are filled with
.

In binary shifting, what happens to the value of a binary number when it is shifted to the right by 1 bit?
What happens if a logical left shift operation causes the most significant bit to be lost?
Binary underflow occurs when the result of a calculation is too small to be represented in the allocated
