1. Operator

2. Assignation (=). The assignation operator serves to assign a value to a variable. a = 5; It is necessary to emphasize that the assignation operation always takes place from right to left and never at the inverse. a = b;

3. Example int a, b; // a:? b:? a = 10; // a:10 b:? b = 4; // a:10 b:4 a = b; // a:4 b:4 b = 7; // a:4 b:7

4. Compound assignation operators (+=, -=, *=, /=, %=, >>=, <<=, &=, ^=, |=)

5. Example value += increase; is equivalent to value = value + increase; a -= 5; is equivalent to a = a - 5; a /= b; is equivalent to a = a / b; price *= units + 1; is equivalent to price = price * (units + 1);

6. Increase and decrease. Another example of saving language when writing code are the increase operator (++) and the decrease operator (--). They increase or reduce by 1 the value stored in a variable. They are equivalent to +=1 and to -=1, respectively. Thus: a++; a+=1; a=a+1; are all equivalent in its functionality: the three increase by 1 the value of a.

7. Arithmetic operators ( +, -, *, /, % ) The five arithmetical operations supported by the language are: +addition -subtraction *multiplication /division %module

8. Relational Operator ( ==, !=, >, =, <= )

9. Relational operators ==Equal !=Different >Greater than <Less than >=Greater or equal than <=Less or equal than

10. Example (7 == 5)would return false. (5 > 4)would return true. (3 != 2)would return true. (6 >= 6)would return true. (5 < 5)would return false.

11. Example 2 Suppose that a=2, b=3 and c=6: (a == 5)would return false. (a*b >= c)would return true since (2*3 >= 6) is it. (b+4 > a*c)would return false since (3+4 > 2*6) is it. ((b=2) == a)would return true.

12. Logical Operator ( !, &&, || ).

13. NOT Logic operators !(5 == 5)returns false because the expression at its right (5 == 5) would be true. !(6 <= 4)returns true because (6 <= 4) would be false. !truereturns false. !falsereturns true.

14. Logic operators && and || First Operand a Second Operand b result a && b result a || b True False True FalseTrueFalseTrue False

15. Example ( (5 == 5) && (3 > 6) ) returns false ( true && false ). ( (5 == 5) || (3 > 6)) returns true ( true || false ).

16. Conditional operator ( ? ) The conditional operator evaluates an expression and returns a different value according to the evaluated expression, depending on whether it is true or false. Its format is: condition ? result1 : result2 if condition is true the expression will return result1, if not it will return result2.

17. Example 7==5 ? 4 : 3 returns 3 since 7 is not equal to 5. 7==5+2 ? 4 : 3 returns 4 since 7 is equal to 5+2. 5>3 ? a : b returns a, since 5 is greater than 3. a>b ? a : b returns the greater one, a or b.

19. // Filename: RELAT1ST.CPP // Prints the results of several relational operations #include void main() { int high = 45; int low = 10; int middle = 25; int answer; answer = high > low; cout low is " << answer << endl; answer = low > high; cout high is " << answer << endl; answer = middle == middle; cout << "Middle == middle is " << answer << endl; answer = high >= middle; cout = middle is " << answer << endl; answer = middle <= low; cout << "Middle <= low is " << answer << endl; answer = 0 == 0; cout << "Bonus relation: 0 == 0 is " << answer << endl; return; }

20. Output High > low is 1 Low > high is 0 Middle == middle is 1 High >= middle is 1 Middle <= low is 0 Bonus relation: 0 == 0 is 1
