  • 0

I am trying to convert some Ruby code into C# but I do not understand what the following line does. Specifically the “challenge >> 24” and similar parts. 

challenge = sprintf("%c%c%c%c".encode("ASCII-8BIT"), x(challenge >> 24), x(challenge >> 16), x(challenge >> 8), x(challenge >> 0))

challenge is an integer that is defined earlier in the code.
x is a method that takes an integer argument and returns an integer.

I am not expecting anyone to convert it to c# for me, just an explanation would be fine.
Thanks.
