About Bit shift right
Shifts the bits in each byte towards the right by the specified amount. Logical shifts replace the leftmost bits with zeros. Arithmetic shifts preserve the most significant bit (MSB) of the original byte keeping the sign the same (positive or negative).
Input: binary bytes (text input uses UTF-8; a file retains its original bytes). Output: binary bytes (text input uses UTF-8; a file retains its original bytes).

Before interpreting the result
Confirm the number base, delimiter and bit width before comparing results. Signed integers, byte strings and floating-point numbers have different representations and precision limits.
How to use this page
- Paste your input or open a local file.
- Adjust tool options if needed, then choose Run tool.
- Copy the result or download the original output bytes.
Inputs and results are not added to the public catalogue or saved in the URL. Processing happens in your browser; HTTP Request and DNS over HTTPS send the requests you explicitly run. Files up to 128 MiB can be opened; decompression and image tools may have smaller processing limits. Large results have a shortened preview. Text and HTML downloads use UTF-8; binary downloads preserve output bytes. Pasted text follows browser newline handling; open a file when exact input bytes matter.
