5.3 TYPES OF OPERATORS
Java language provides different types of operators to do a variety of operations.
The different types of operators are:

5.3.1 Arithmetic Operators
Arithmetic operators are used to perform basic and advanced mathematical operations on operands which are of
primitive data types. Here, mainly two forms of operators are used. They are unary and binary operators.
Arithmetic Operators
Sl. Example
No. Operator Name Operator Symbol m=10, n=5 Output
1. Addition + m + n 15
2. Subtraction - m - n 5
3. Multiplication * m * n 50
4. Division / m / n 2
5. Remainder or Modulus % m % n 0
6. Unary plus + +m 10
7. Unary minus - -m -10
8. Increment ++ ++m 11
9. Decrement -- m-- 10
Let us study about these arithmetic operators in details.
Addition (+) Operator
The addition (+) operator is used for adding two values or operands either of integer literals or real literals. The
result may be positive or negative depending on the values. For examples,
If m = 10 and n = 5, then m + n = 10 + 5 = 15
If m = -40, n = 2, then m + n = -40 + 2 = -38
If i = -10.5, j = 10, then i + j = -10.5 + 10 = -0.5
