Why does bit-wise shift left return different results in Python and Java?

Question

I\'m trying to port some functionality from a Java app to Python.

In Java,

System.out.println(155 << 24);

Returns: -1694498816

Answer 1

Use long in java to get the same result

System.out.println(155L << 24);

instead of

System.out.println(155 << 24);

Long are 4 byte length so the precision is the same for this context to python integers.
