Lesson Plan: Operators and Expressions

Duration: 55 minutes
Subject: Programming In C

Lesson Objectives:

By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:

1. Define operators and expressions in programming.


2. Identify different types of operators.
3. Write and evaluate expressions using various operators.
4. Understand the precedence and associativity of operators.

Lesson Structure:

1. Introduction (10 minutes)

 Definition of Operators and Expressions


o Operators: Symbols that perform operations on variables and values.
o Expressions: Combinations of variables, values, and operators that produce a
result.
o Example: a = 5 + 3; (Here, + is an operator, and 5 + 3 is an expression).
 Real-life analogy: Explain operators using mathematical operations (addition,
subtraction).

Reference:

 "Python Crash Course" by Eric Matthes


 "C Programming Language" by Brian Kernighan & Dennis Ritchie

2. Types of Operators (15 minutes)

a. Arithmetic Operators (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, Modulus,


Exponentiation)

 Example: x = 10 + 5;

b. Relational (Comparison) Operators (==, !=, >, <, >=, <=)


 Example: 5 > 3 → True

c. Logical Operators (AND, OR, NOT)

 Example: (x > 3) && (x < 10);

d. Assignment Operators (=, +=, -=, *=, /=, %=)

 Example: x += 2; (Equivalent to x = x + 2;)

e. Bitwise Operators (&, |, ^, ~, <<, >>)

 Example: 5 & 3 (Performs bitwise AND operation)

f. Ternary Operator (condition ? expr1 : expr2;)

 Example: result = (x > y) ? x : y;

 "Programming in ANSI C" by E. Balagurusamy


 Geeks for Geeks - Operators in C

3. Operator Precedence and Associativity (10 minutes)

 Precedence: Defines which operator is executed first.


o Example: x = 5 + 3 * 2; (Multiplication is done first)
 Associativity: Defines how operators of the same precedence are executed (Left to Right
or Right to Left).

Example Table:

Operator Associativity
* / % Left to Right
+ - Left to Right
= Right to Left

Reference:

 "Introduction to the Theory of Computation" by Michael Sipser

4. Hands-on Coding Activity (15 minutes)


 Exercise 1: Write a program using arithmetic operators to calculate the area of a
rectangle.
 #include <stdio.h>
 int main() {
 int length = 10, width = 5;
 int area = length * width;
 printf("Area of Rectangle: %d", area);
 return 0;
}

 Exercise 2: Demonstrate logical and comparison operators in an if condition.


 #include <stdio.h>
 int main() {
 int x = 10, y = 20;
 if (x < y && y > 15) {
 printf("Condition is True");
 }
 return 0;
}

 Discussion: Ask students to modify and test expressions.

Conclusion & Recap (5 minutes)

 Quick recap of key points.


 Ask students to explain operator precedence with an example.
 Assign homework: Solve operator-based questions from reference books.
