Int into binary 1

[Malcav]

hi
I have an integer i.e. 194 and I need to take the first 6 binary values and turn that into a number.
Have done a search but there was not much helpful info.
Thanks in advance

Well

sixbits = myint & 0x3f;

gets the least significant 6 bits.

myint >>= 6;

moves the next 6 bits into position.

THanks.

 

[MarcoMB]

can explain what exactly means the operator >>= in this context?

It's a right-shift assignment operator:
