I think in the Java program the int type is 32 bits, and Java must give a 32 bit result when shifting a long by an int for whatever arcane Java arithmetic reason -- probably a historical anomaly made to support legacy 32 bit code. --[[User:Wherrera|Wherrera]] ([[User talk:Wherrera|talk]]) 22:14, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
I just tested this in Java 8 (1.8) and the behavior you got only happens with two ints, and the larger number happens if either is a long. --[[User:Wherrera|Wherrera]] ([[User talk:Wherrera|talk]]) 23:42, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
