Operators in C++ -(Day Eight)

Operators in C

Operators and Operands –

The operations being carried out on data, are represented by operators. and the data/object on which operation is to be applied is referred as operands. Consider an expression [(m+n)(e-7)] , where m,n,e are operands or data or objects and +,-, are operators in C++. Operators in C joins variables and constants to form expressions. C++ is very rich in built-in operators. Different classes of operators in C++ are –

• Arithmetic_operators – These are further divided into two classes again which are –
  • Unary operators (+ -) and
  • Binary operators. (+ – / * %)
• Increment/decrement operators These are divided into –
  • Post Increment
  • Pre Increment
• Relational operators
• Logical operators
• Bit wise operators
• Conditional (ternary) operators
• Other operators
• Assignment_operators (or) c++ shorthands

Click on the operator below, for its detailed description with C++ programs.

S.no	Types of Operators	Description
1	Arithmetic operators	Performs maths calculations like addition(+), subtraction(-), division(/), multiplication(*) and modulus(%)
2	Increment/decrement operators	Used to either increase or decrease the operand value of the variable by one.
3	Relational operators	Performs comparison of value of two variables. These operators establish relationships among the values.
4	Logical operators	Performs logical operations on the given two variables. It tells how the relationships among values can be connected.
5	Bitwise operators	Performs bit operations on given two variables.
6	Conditional (ternary) operators	Ternary operator returns one value if condition is true and returns another value if condition is false.
7	Other operators	&, *, sizeof( ), comma (,).
8	Assignment operators or c++ shorthands		used to assign the values for the variables in C++ programs.
