 PROGRAM ERRORS

30/9/2015
 Conceptual Errors

#include <iostream>
Using namespace std;
int main ()
{
int a=4;
int b=10;
int c = b/a;
cout << “C = “ << c;
return 0;
}
The program is not doing what you expect it to do.

THE CIN OBJECT

30/9/2015
 It is used to read data from keyboard
 In simple words. user enter data from the
keyboard
 Syntax:
 Cin>>variable;

ARITHMETIC OPERATORS

30/9/2015
 Arithmetic calculations
*
Multiplication
/
Division
Integer division truncates remainder
7 / 5 evaluates to 1
%
Modulus operator returns remainder
7 % 5 evaluates to 2
+ and –
Addition and Subtraction 5
CLASS ACTIVITY

30/9/2015
 Write a program which has all the
mathematical operators?
 +, -, /, %

 Write a program to add 5 integers an print

the result. [inputs are provided by the user]
 Also, print he average of these values at the
end and print the result?

 Rules of operator precedence

Operator(s) Operation(s) Order of evaluation (precedence)

() Parentheses Evaluated first. If the parentheses are nested, the
expression in the innermost pair is evaluated
first. If there are several pairs of parentheses
“on the same level” (i.e., not nested), they are
evaluated left to right.
*, /, or % Multiplication Evaluated second. If there are several, they re
Division evaluated left to right.
Modulus
+ or - Addition Evaluated third. If there are several, they are
Subtraction evaluated left to right.
= Assignment Evaluated last, right to left

ARITHMETIC OPERATORS

30/9/2015
 Priority of operators
a = 5 + 7 % 2;
 we may doubt if it really means:
 a = 5 + (7 % 2) with result 6 or
 a = (5 + 7) % 2 with result 0

 Parentheses are included when one is not sure

ARITHMETIC OPERATORS

30/9/2015
 Given integer variables a, b, c, d, and e,
where a = 1, b = 2, c = 3, d = 4, Evaluate
the following expressions:

a + b - c + d
a * b / c
1 + a * b % c
a + d % b - c
e = b = d + c / b - a

COMPOUND ASSIGNMENT

30/9/2015
 Arithmetic Assignment Operators
 a = a + b;
 a += b;

void main(void)
{
int number = 15;
number +=10;
cout << number << endl; 25
number -=7;
18
cout << number << endl;
number *=2; 36
cout << number << endl;
number %=2; 0
cout << number << endl;
}

 Increment Operators (Unary Operator)
 count = count + 1;

 count +=1;

 count++; OR ++count;

int a = 5; int a = 5;
int b = 10; int b = 10;
int c = a * b++; int c = a * +
+b;

 count = count - 1;

 count -=1;

 count--; OR --count;

int main()
{
int count = 10; 10
11
cout << count << endl; 11
cout << ++count << endl; 11
cout << count << endl; 12
cout << count++ << endl;
cout << count << endl;
}

RELEATIONAL OPERATORS

30/9/2015
 To evaluate comparison between two
expressions
 Result: True / xFalse
Assume variable holds 10 and variable y holds 20,
then:
Standard algebraic C++ equality Example Meaning of
equality operator or or relational of C++ C++ condition
relational operator operator condition
Relational operators
> > x > y x is greater than y
< < x < y x is less than y

 >= x >= y x is greater than or equal to y

 <= x <= y x is less than or equal to y

Equality operators
= == x == y x is equal to y

 != x != y x is not equal to y 14
RELATIONAL OPERATORS

30/9/2015
 Examples
 (7 == 5) would return false
 (3 != 2) would return true
 (6 >= 6) would return true
 If a=2, b=3 and c=6
 (a*b >= c) would return true since it is (2*3 >=
6)
 (b+4 > a*c) would return false since it is (3+4 >
2*6)
 ((b=2) == a) would return true

15
LOGICAL OPERATORS

30/9/2015
 Logical expressions - expressions that use
conditional statements and logical operators.
 && (And)
 A && B is true if and only if both A and B are true
 || (Or)
 A || B is true if either A or B are true
! (Not)
 !(condition) is true if condition is false, and false if
condition is true
 This is called the logical complement or negation

 Examples
 (salary < 10000) || (dependants > 5)
 (temperature > 40.0) && (humidity > 90)
16
 !(temperature > 90.0)
LOGICAL OPERATORS - EXERCISES

30/9/2015
 NOT, AND, OR : ( !, &&, || )
 Operator ! is equivalent to Boolean operation
NOT
 ! (5 == 5) returns false
 ! (6 <= 4) returns true
 ! true returns false.
 ! false returns true.

 ((5 == 5) && (3 > 6)) returns false (true && false)

 ((5 == 5) || (3 > 6)) returns true ( true || false ).

17
REMEMBER

30/9/2015
 && operator yields a true result only
when both its operands are true.

 ||
operator yields a false result only
when both its operands are false.

18
EXPRESSIONS

30/9/2015
 A sequence of operators and operands that
specifies a computation
 Operand
 On which computation is performed
 E.g: c = a + b; //a & b are operands & + is an
operator
 C = 7 + 8; // C=15
