Is it a bug when use “<<”if the operator is out of the size "0~63"

Because the shift operators in C have an undefined result when the
shift-count is larger than the size of the type.

As the compiler generally just generates the underlying CPU's shift
instruction, then what happens in practice depends on the CPU.
Different CPUs do different things in such a case, and one popular
alternative is to simply interpret the shift-count modulo the word-size.

Same thing.
