It helps a lot to treat the numbers as binary. You can also think about dividing by 2 (right shift) or multiplying by 2 (left shift)

Hi sanagopi
I've just answered to your posting dealing with hexadecimal number 0xff where at least left shift operator has been annotated.
right-shift operator: that is kind of division by 2, and it functions analogously to left shift. You could understand both operators if you read my posting there.
