The document discusses different types of operators in Java including arithmetic, assignment, comparison, logical, and bitwise operators. It provides examples of using each type of operator and explains what they are used for. Arithmetic operators are used for mathematical operations. Assignment operators assign values to variables. Comparison operators compare values and return true or false. Logical operators combine conditional statements and bitwise operators perform operations on bits.

Java Operators

Java Operators
• Operator in Java is a symbol that is used to perform operations.
• For example:
• +,
• -,
• *,
• / etc.
Java Operators
• Operators are used to perform
operations on variables
• Although the + operator is often used to add
and values.
• In the example below, we use together two values, like in the example
the + operator to add together above, it can also be used to add together a
two values variable and a value, or a variable and another
variable:
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) { Example
int x = 100 + 50; int sum1 = 100 + 50; // 150 (100 + 50)
System.out.println(x); int sum2 = sum1 + 250; // 400 (150 + 250)
} int sum3 = sum2 + sum2; // 800 (400 + 400)
}
Types of operators
Java divides the operators into the following groups:
1. Arithmetic operators
2. Unary operators
3. Assignment operators
4. Comparison operators/Relational Operators
5. Logical operators
6. Bitwise operators
Arithmetic Operators
Arithmetic operators are used to perform common mathematical
operations.
Operator Name Description Example

+ Addition Adds together two values x+y

- Subtraction Subtracts one value from


another
x-y

* Multiplication Multiplies two values x*y

/ Division Divides one value by another x/y

% Modulus Returns the division remainder x%y

++ Increment Increases the value of a variable ++x


by 1

-- Decrement Decreases the value of a variable --x


by 1
Unary Operators
• Increment ++
• Decrement --
Class Unary{
public static void main(String args[]) {
int a=5;
System.out.println(a);
a--;
System.out.println(a);
a++;
a++;
a--;
System.out.println(a);}}
Java Assignment Operators
Assignment operators are used to assign values to variables.

In the example below, we public class Main {


usethe assignment operator public static void main(String[] args)
(=) to assign the value 10 to {
a variable called x: int x = 10;
System.out.println(x);
Example
int x = 10;
}
}
Arithmetic assignment operators
Operator Example Same As
= x=5 x=5

+= x += 3 x=x+3

-= x -= 3 x=x-3

*= x *= 3 x=x*3

/= x /= 3 x=x/3

%= x %= 3 x=x%3
Java Comparison Operators
• Comparison operators are used to compare two values (or
variables).
• This is important in programming, because it helps us to find
answers and make decisions.
• The return value of a comparison is either true or false.
• These values are known as Boolean values, and you will learn
more about them in the Booleans and If..Else chapter.
• In the following example, we use the greater than operator
(>) to find out if 5 is greater than 3

Example
int x = 5; int y = 3;
System.out.println(x > y); //
returns true, because 5 is higher
than 3
A simple example
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int x = 5;
int y = 3;
System.out.println(x > y);
// returns true, because 5 is higher than 3
}
}
Comparison of Relational Operators
Operator Name Example
== Equal to x == y

!= Not equal x != y

> Greater than x>y

< Less than x<y

>= Greater than or equal to x >= y

<= Less than or equal to x <= y


Java Logical Operators
You can also test for true or false values with logical operators.
Logical operators are used to determine the logic between variables or
values:

Operator Name Description Example


&& Logical Returns true if both statements x < 5 && x < 10
AND are true

|| Logical OR Returns true if one of the x < 5 || x < 4


statements is true

! Logical Reverse the result, returns false !(x < 5 && x < 10)
NOT if the result is true
Truth Tables of Logical operators
LOGICAL OR LOGICAL AND
1 1 1
1 1 1

1 0 1 1 0 0

0 1 1 0 1 0

0 0 0 0 0 0
A simple program of Logical Operators
class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int x = 5;
System.out.println(x > 3 && x < 10);
// returns true because 5 is greater than 3 AND 5 is less than 10
System.out.println(x > 3 || x < 4);
// returns true because one of the conditions are true (5 is greater than 3, but 5 is not less than 4)
System.out.println(!(x > 3 && x < 10));
// returns false because ! (not) is used to reverse the result
}
}
Exercises
• Write programs on all operators and take values at runtime.
