kindly explain the code.

[ramanuja varun]

public class Test
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
int x = 11;

x &= 2; //1

System.out.println(x << 2 + x); //2
}
}
please explain why this code will print 32 instead of 10(x<<2 will give 8)

Please put all your code in CODE tags; it makes it much easier to read.

It is impossible for anything & 2 to equal 1; in fact 11 & 2 gives 2. The + operator has a higher priority than the bit shift operators, so you are shifting by 4, not by 2.
