expression
Floating-point numbers are converted to integers by discarding any digits after the decimal
point. Positive integers are converted to an unsigned hex value with a maximum value of
4294967295 or 0xFFFFFFFF; values larger than the maximum have their most significant
digits discarded when they are converted so the value is still 32-bit. Negative numbers are
converted to an unsigned hex value via the two's complement notation, with the minimum
being -2147483648 or 0x800000000; numbers less than the minimum are converted to two's
complement with greater precision and also have the most significant digits discarded.

Returns
- The result of the bitwise operation.
Number
Example
The following example converts -1 to a 32-bit integer and shifts it 1 bit to the right:
var x:Number = -1 >>> 1;
trace(x); // output: 2147483647
