Operators in Java

Operators are the symbol that performs some operations.Operator acts on variables. Those variables are called operands.
for example: c*d
Here c and d are operands where as * is an operator.
If an operator acts upon single operand then it is known as unary operator.If it acts upon two operand, they are called binary operator. 
Arithmetic Operator
The operator that are used to perform fundamental operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division etc. are known as Arithmetic operator. There are five arithmetic operators in java. There are shown in the table.

Operator
Function
Example
Outcome
+
Addition Operator
44+50
94
-
Subtraction Operator
50-44
6
*
Multiplication Operator
44*50
2200
/
Division Operator
50/25
2
%
Modulus Operator
45%25
20

Note :-
  •  Addition operator in java is also used to join two  Strings.
  •   In java Strings are a type of class whereas in C/C++ It is a data type.

Logical Operators
These operators are used for logical operations or to construct compound condition, Compound condition is a combination of several simple sentences. There are Three logical operators-
  • && And Operator
  • || Or operator
  • ! Not Operator
For example- 
if(a==1 || c==1)
System.out.println("True");
In this statement any of a or c is equal to 1 then True will be shown

if(a==1 && c==1)
System.out.println("Fine");
In this statementif both a and c is equal to 1 only then "Fine " will be displayed


In next blog we will discuss on Unary  and Boolean Operators
