OPERATORS
An operator is a symbol that tells the compiler to perform specific mathematical or logical
calculations. It requires operands or values to perform calculations and return the desired
result.
For example:
int x = y + z;
or
int x = 10 + 20;
In the above example, the plus (+) operator is used to calculate the sum of the two variables (y and z)
or values (10 and 20). It calculates the sum and assigns the result to variable x.
There are various types of operators in Java, which are as follows:
Arithmetic operators
Relational operators
Logical operators
Unary operators
Assignment operators
Let's discuss these in detail.
Arithmetic Operators
Arithmetic operators are used to do basic mathematical calculations. They consist of both
unary operators, which operate on a single operand, and binary operators, which require two
operands.
Example
Operator Description Syntax Output
(int a = 11, b = 4)
+ Returns the result after performing a + b a + b 15
(addition) addition
– Returns the result after performing a – b a – b 7
(subtraction) subtraction
