This document discusses different types of operators in C programming language. It describes arithmetic, relational, logical, assignment, increment/decrement, conditional, bitwise and special operators. For each type of operator, it provides the syntax, examples of use, and meaning or purpose. The key types of operators covered are arithmetic (for math operations), relational (for comparisons), logical (for conditional logic), and assignment (for assigning values). Examples are provided to demonstrate how each operator is used in C code.

1. 1

2. An operator is a symbol that tells the
computer to perform certain mathematical or
logical manipulations.
These operators are used in programs to
manipulate data and variables.

among the values.

Main()
{
int x=25;
int y=4;
printf(“%d+%d=%dn,x,y,x+y);
printf(“%d-%d=%dn,x,y,x-y);
printf(“%d*%d=%dn,x,y,x*y);
printf(“%d/%d=%dn,x,y,x/y);
printf(“%d%%%d=%dn,x,y,x%y);

6. Relational operator are used to compare two operands.
Operands may be variable, constant or expression.
OperatorOperator MeaningMeaning
< Is less than
<= Is less than equal to
> Is greater than
>= Is greater than equal to
== Equal to
!= is not equal to

7. #include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
int a, b;
printf(“Enter values for a and b : ");
scanf("%d %d", &a, &b);
printf("n The < value of a is %d", a<b);
printf("n The <= value of a is %d", a<=b);
printf("n The > value of a is %d", a>b);
printf("n The >= value of a is %d", a>=b);
printf("n The == value of a is %d", a==b);
printf("n The != value of a is %d", a!=b);
}

8. LOGICAL OPERATORS:
OPERATOR MEANING
&& Logical AND
|| Logical OR
! Logical NOT
These operators are used for testing more than one condition and
making decisions.
'C' has three logical operators they are:

9. Example:-Example:-
#Include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
int a, b;
printf(“enter values for a and b : ");
scanf(“%d %d", &a, &b);
printf("n %d",(a<b)&&(a!=B));
printf("n %d",(a<b)||(b<a));
printf("n %d",!(A==b));
}

10. ASSIGNMENT OPERATORS
Assignment operator are used to assign
the value or an expression or a variable to
another variable.
 The syntax is
variablename = expression;
i.g. A=b;
 Operators:
== , += , -= , *= , /= , %= , >>= , <<= ,
&= ,

11. Increments & decrement operator is also called Unary .
The increment operator (++++) adder on to the variable and
decrement (- -- -) subtract one from the variable. There are
following unary operator
INCREMENT & DECREMENTINCREMENT & DECREMENT
OPERATORSOPERATORS
Operator Meaning
++x++x Pre increment
- -x- -x Pre decrement
x++x++ Post increment
X- -X- - Post decrement

12. INCREMENT & DECREMENT OPERATORSINCREMENT & DECREMENT OPERATORS
EXAMPLEEXAMPLE
#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
int a,b,c;
printf("Enter the values for a and b :");
scanf("%d %d", &a, &b);
printf("n The value of c is %d", c=++a);
printf("n The value of c is %d", c=a++);
printf("n The value of c is %d", c=--b);
printf("n The value of c is %d", c=b--);
}

13. CONDITIONALCONDITIONAL
OPERATORSOPERATORSThese conditional operator are used to construct
conditional expressions of the form.
Syntax:
exp1?exp2:exp3.
where exp1,exp2,exp3 are expressions.
Operator: ?: (ternary operator)
13

14. Example:-Example:-
#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
int a, b, x;
printf("Enter the values of a add b : ");
scanf("%d %d", &a, &b);
x=(a>b)?a:b;
printf("Biggest Value is :%d",x);
}

15. Bitwise Operator:-Bitwise Operator:-
Are used by the programmer to communicate
directly with the hardware.These operator are
used for designing bit or shifting them either
right to left, left to right.
Example:-
OPERATOR MEANING
& Bitwise AND
| Bitwise OR
^ Bitwise Exclusive OR
<< Shift Left
>> Shift Right

16. SPECIAL OPERATORSSPECIAL OPERATORS
'C' supports some special operators such as comma
operator, sizeof operator and pointerpointer operators.
Comma operator:Comma operator:
the comma operator is used to combine related
expressions.
A comma linked list of expressions are evaluated
left to right and the value of right most expression is
the value of combined expression..
Example: value=(x=10, y=5, x+y);

17. Special OperatorsSpecial Operators
Contd…Contd…
Sizeof Operator:Sizeof Operator:
Sizeof is an operator used to return the
number of bytes the operand occupies.
Syntax:
m=sizeof(sum);
k=sizeof(2351);
