- The computer has to be told how to process data.
- This task is accomplished through the use of operators in high level languages
- Operators are data connectors within expressions and equations
- The type of operator used in problem solving are mathematical, relational, and logical.
- The operand and the resultant are two concepts related to the operator
- Operands are the data that the operator connects and processes.
- The resultant is the answer that results when the operation is completed. For example 5 + 7
Mathematical Operators:
+, -, /, *, \, MOD, ^
Relational Operators:
<, >, ==, !=, <=, >=
- Operands of relational operators can either be numeric or character, however, they must be of the same type.
- The resultant of relational operation is of logical data type (i.e. either True or False).
Logical Operators:
AND, OR, NOT
- Logical operators are used to connect relational expressions and to perform operations on logical data.
Operator Precedence:
- ()
- Function calls
- NOT, Unary –
- ^ (power)
- /, *, \, MOD
- +, –
- <, <=, >, >=
- ==, !=
- AND
- OR
- =
