Java Bitwise Operators Divide an int value 32 to 16 without using arithmetic operator or function in Java

Question

We would like to divide an int value 32 to 16 without using arithmetic operator or function in Java.

And we cannot use * or + or Math.pow() function. 



public class Main {
  public static void main(String args[]) {
    
    
    int a = 32;
    
    System.out.println(a >> 1);

    System.out.println(a >> 2);
  }
}

Each time you shift a value to the right, it divides that value by two and discards any remainder.

We can use this for high-performance integer division by 2.
