It doesn't matter if you are only after the lower bits. It's faster than padding unnecessarily.

Right shifting a negative signed integer is undefined. Or rather , the result is platform and compiler dependent.

You wouldn't be interviewing me pal.

You're damn right I wouldn't, you wouldn't make it past DodgyAgent.

Good comeback!
