Unit 3 Operators-1

The document outlines various types of operators in programming, including assignment, numeric, bitwise, logical, relational, and short-circuit operators, along with their descriptions and examples. It also covers the binary number system, operator precedence and associativity, and type conversion methods. Additionally, it includes potential questions for both lower-order and higher-order thinking about these concepts.

Unit-3 Operators

1. Assignment Operators
Description: Used to assign values to variables.

Examples: =, +=, -=, *=, /=, %=

2. Numeric Operators
Description: Used for mathematical calculations.

Examples: + (addition), - (subtraction), * (multiplication), / (division), % (modulus)

3. Prefix and Postfix Operators


Prefix: The operator appears before the variable, e.g., ++x, --x.

Postfix: The operator appears after the variable, e.g., x++, x--.

4. Binary Number System


Description: A base-2 numeral system using digits 0 and 1. Common in computing for
representing binary data.

- Binary to Decimal Conversion


- Decimal to Binary Conversion

5. Bitwise Operators
Description: Operate on binary representations of numbers.

Examples: & (AND), | (OR), ^ (XOR), ~ (NOT), << (left shift), >> (right shift)

6. Logical Operators
Description: Used to perform logical operations.

Examples: && (AND), || (OR), ! (NOT)

7. Relational Operators
Description: Compare two values and return a boolean result.

Examples: == (equal to), != (not equal to), > (greater than), < (less than), >=
(greater than or equal to), <= (less than or equal to)

8. Short-Circuit Operators
Description: Logical operators that stop evaluating as soon as the result is
determined.

Examples: && (AND), || (OR)

9. sizeof Operator
Description: Returns the size of a data type or object in bytes. Examples: sizeof(int)
might return 4.

10. Operator Precedence and Associativity


Operator Precedence: Determines the order in which operators are evaluated.
Associativity: Defines how operators of the same precedence are grouped in the absence
of parentheses.

Examples: In 3 + 4 * 2, multiplication has higher precedence, so it is evaluated


before addition.

11. Type Conversion


Implicit Conversion: Automatic conversion of data types by the compiler.
Explicit Conversion (Casting): Manually converting one data type to another.

Examples:

int x = (int)3.14; (explicit)


double y = 3; (implicit)

Possible Questions LOTS:

What is the role of the assignment operator = in programming?


Give an example of a logical operator in programming.
How does the sizeof operator work in C/C++?

HOTS:

Explain how operator precedence and associativity affect the evaluation of the
expression 2 + 3 * 5.
Describe a scenario where short-circuit operators could be useful in
programming.
Compare and contrast implicit and explicit type conversion, providing examples
where each might be preferred.
