Exactly.  But don't forget to shift right, cast to an int, then and with 255.
And I used 255 for all cases.  If the diagonal isn't that long, I just
initialize the unused cases correctly so that I get the right value for just
the diagonal bits that are of interest, without caring what the extra bits have
in them...
