Operators in C++

C++ operators are a special type of functions or symbols that take one or more than one argument and create a new value or in other words used to perform various logical and mathematical manipulations or calculations.

They act as the foundation of C++ programming, languages such as C or C++ is incomplete without operators.

C++ consists of a list of operators that are divided into groups such as:

1. Arithmetic Operators (+,-,*, /, %)
2. Unary operator (++,-)
3. Assignment Operator (=,+=)
4. Relational Operators (<,>,>=, <=,! = ,==)
5. Ternary operators (?:)
6. Bitwise Operators (&,<<,>>,~,^,|)
7. Logical Operators (&&, ||)
8. Misc Operator (sizeof(),*,?:,&,)
9. Ternary Operator

List of Operators present in C++

Following is the simple program on operators:

#include<iostream>
// Main Function
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
// Variable Declaration
  int p = 38;
  int r = 20;
  int z = 40;
  int q = 60;
  int result;
  cout << "Operators Example Program \n";
  result = p - r; // subtraction (Subtraction or unary minus Arithmetic Operator)
  cout <<"\np - r = "<<result;
  result = r * z; // multiplication (Multiplication Arithmetic Operator)
  cout <<"\nr * z ="<< result;
  result = p / z; // division (Division Arithmetic Operator)
  cout <<"\na / c = "<< result;
  result = p + r * z; // precedence (Addition or unary plus Arithmetic Operator)
  cout <<"\np + r * z = "<< result;
  cout <<"\np * r + z * q = "<< p * r + z * q; // Mixed
  return 0;
}

Result:

Operators Example Program

p - r = 18

r * z = 800

a / c = 0

p + r * z = 838

p * r + z * q = 3160
