 Operators

 Operator precedence

 Associativity of operators

 Type conversion and Typecasting

Operators
 An operator is a symbol that operates on
value or variable.

 Arithmetic Operator
Cont’d…
 Increment (++) and Decrement (--)
Operators

int a = 2, b = 5;

++a; // a : 3
--b; // b : 4
Cont’d…
 Assignment Operator
Cont’d…
 Relational Operators
Cont’d…
 Logical Operator

int a = 5, b = 5, c = 10, result;

result = (a == b) && (c > b); // result : 1

result = (a == b) || (c < b); // result : 1
result = !(a == b); // result : 0
Cont’d…
 Bitwise Operator
Cont’d…
 Conditional Operator

 Syntax : test expression ? expression :

expression

int a = 5, b;

b = a>2? a : 0; // b : 5
b = a>6? a : 0; // b : 0
Cont’d…
 Comma Operator
int a, c = 5, d;
 sizeof Operator
char a;
sizeof(a); // return 1
 Prefix Operator
int a = 5, b;
b = ++a; // b : 6
 Postfix Operator
int a = 5, b;
b = a++; // b : 5
Operator precedence
 Operator precedence determines which
operator is performed first in an expression.
Operators associativity
 It is used when two operators of same precedence
appear in an expression.
 Associativity can be either Left to Right or Right to Left.
Type conversion and Type casting
 A type cast is basically a conversion from
one type to another.

 Implicit Type Conversion

int x = 10;
float y = x + 2.5; // y : 12.500000

 Explicit Type Conversion or Type casting

double x = 1.2;
int sum = (int)x + 1; // sum : 2
