Discussion
Shifting an integer by a number of bits greater than or equal to its width is well defined in C.

Correct answer: False
Such a shift is undefined behaviour: the standard requires the shift count to be non-negative and less than the width of the promoted left operand. Different processors handle an oversized count differently, which is why no result is guaranteed.
