A logical shift moves bits left or right. After a left shift, the high-order bit is lost while a zero is inserted in the low-order bit. After a right-shift, the low-order bit is lost and a zero inserted in the high-order bit. The left (<<) and right (>>) shift operators are binary operators; the first operand is the value being shifted, the second operand is the number of bit positions to shift. Thus x << y will left shifts all the bits of x by y bit positions.

How do the arithmetic shift and logical shift differ?

With a logical shift the vacated bits are always filled with zeroes. With an arithmetic shift, a left shift will fill vacated bits with zeroes but a right shift fills the vacated bits with a copy of the most significant bit.

What are the uses of logical operators in Java?

Logical Operators are those that are used for doing logical operations. There are a total of 6 logical operators (&amp;, |, ^, !, &amp;&amp;, and &acirc;&euro;&ndash;) Of the six logical operators listed above, three of them (&amp;, |, and ^) can also be used as "bitwise" operators. There are two non-short-circuit logical operators. &acirc;&euro;&cent; &amp; non-short-circuit AND &acirc;&euro;&cent; | non-short-circuit OR There are two short-circuit logical operators &acirc;&euro;&cent; &amp;&amp; short-circuit AND &acirc;&euro;&cent; short-circuit OR

Difference between an arithmetic shift operation and a logical shift operation?

Instead of being filled with all 0s, as in logical shift, when shifting to the right, the leftmost bit (usually the sign bit in signed integer representations) is replicated to fill in all the vacant positions (this is a kind of sign extension).


What are the various types operators in verilog?

In Verilog, operators can be categorized into several types: Arithmetic Operators: These include addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), division (/), and modulus (%). Relational Operators: Operators such as equal (==), not equal (!=), greater than (&gt;), and less than (&lt;) compare values. Bitwise Operators: These include AND (&amp;), OR (|), XOR (^), and NOT (~), which operate on individual bits of operands. Logical Operators: Used for logical operations, including logical AND (&amp;&amp;), logical OR (||), and logical NOT (!). Shift Operators: These are used for bit shifting, specifically left shift (&lt;&lt;) and right shift (&gt;&gt;). Each operator serves distinct purposes in digital design and simulation.
