In C, it is undefined behavior to shift by more than the width $w$ of an integral type. Typically though, only the last $w$ bits are considered in the computation. For example, given `int32_t x`, `(x << 32) = (x << 0)`.

Ignoring UB, what *typically* happens when shifting an `int32_t` by `k ≥ 32` bits?
Back: The shift value is interpreted as `k mod 32`.
Assuming two's-complement, what is the result of shifting an `int32_t` value by `32`?
Back: It is undefined behavior.
