Java Integer rotateRight() Method

The rotateRight() method of Java Integer class 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).

Bit shifting is a bitwise operation which is performed on all the bits of a binary value by moving the bits to a definite number of places towards left or right. Java has a single Logical right shift operator (>>).
