Integer.RotateRight(Int32, Int32) Method

Definition

Returns the value obtained by rotating the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value right by the specified number of bits.

[Android.Runtime.Register("rotateRight", "(II)I", "")]
public static int RotateRight (int i, int distance);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("rotateRight", "(II)I", "")>]
static member RotateRight : int * int -> int

Parameters

i
Int32

the value whose bits are to be rotated right

distance
Int32

the number of bit positions to rotate right

Returns

the value obtained by rotating the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value right by the specified number of bits.

Attributes

Remarks

Returns the value obtained by rotating the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value right by the specified number of bits. (Bits shifted out of the right hand, or low-order, side reenter on the left, or high-order.)

Note that right rotation with a negative distance is equivalent to left rotation: rotateRight(val, -distance) == rotateLeft(val, distance). Note also that rotation by any multiple of 32 is a no-op, so all but the last five bits of the rotation distance can be ignored, even if the distance is negative: rotateRight(val, distance) == rotateRight(val, distance & 0x1F).
