Can anyone explain the result of this expression with proper bit pattern

1<<24

[fysiks]

It's a 1 shifted left 24 positions . . . What else is there to know?

[felipemilralze]

for example

8<<1 // 16 = 8*2 or 8+8
8>>1 // 4 = 8/2 or 8-4

I do not understand it 1<<24.

I do not know but it will result in a high value because 24 positions left.

1<<24 = 2^24. The value also depends on the size of the variable its assigned to.

[ezio_auditore]

for example....
2|3 returns into 3.
The bit-pattern of 2 is 0010 and that of 3 is 0011...
we have.
0010 |
0011
------
0011.
which is three

[Shooting King]

for example....
1<<3 gives 8.
The bit pattern of 1 is 0001.

Shifting 1 to three positions left,
1<<3 gives
1000
which is 8.

ahhh...
then this should be a large number...

None of that has anything to do with anything said in this thread.

That doesn't make sense. You should tell us what you are actually trying to do if you want good advice.

I wanted to explain it with a proper bit pattern.
the expression 1<<24 results into 16777216.
since the bit pattern of 1 is:
0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0001.
Then we move it 24 bits left which results into:
0000 0001 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000.
which is the bit pattern of 16777216.
