C Programming : Extra Notes (Part-01)
Abhishek Sharma Notes Lecture 5 and 6
Operator
Operators is used to perform arithmetic & logical operations
Operator category is
Unary : Only 1 Operand
Example a = -5
Binary : 2 Operand required
Example : a = 3+5
Ternary: 3 Operand required
?
Assignment operator : =
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int a = -129;
a = 120
printf("%d",a);
return 0;
}
Assignment will the value at location associated as a
L-value and R-value
L-value of a variable is Location in memory associated with variable.
R-value value of a variable is value stored in location associated with the
variable.
Assignment operator changes the changes L- value of variable.
The constant (integer, string , character, float), expression cannot have L-value so
you can not write them in LHS of assignment operator
10 = 20, not allowed
10+20 = 30, not allowed
‘a’ = 30, not allowed
Only variable have L value associated with them
RHS can be expression, literal constant , variable
char a = ‘a’
int a1 = 2+3*4;
int a2 = 100;
Unary Operand
+1, - 3, &a
Binary Arithmetic Operator
+,-*/,%
Order of evaluation of the operator
Division and % Operand
Dividend,
Divisor ,
Quotient ,
Remainder
Dividend = Quotient * Divisor+ Remainder
7 / 3, -7/3, 7/-3, -7/-3
7/3 7/-3 -7/3 -7/-3
Dividend 7 -7 7 -7
Divisor 3 3 -3 -5
Quotient 2 -2 -2 2
Remainder 1 1 -1 -1
Sign of Remainder : Dividend positive Remainder positive , Dividend Negative
Remainder Negative
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
printf("%d\n",7/3);
printf("%d\n",7/-3);
printf("%d\n",-7/3);
printf("%d\n",-7/-3);
printf("%d\n",7%3);
printf("%d\n",7%-3);
printf("%d\n",-7%3);
printf("%d\n",-7%-3);
return 0;
}
Expression Rule:
o Operation between integer and integer is integer
o Operation between integer and float is float
o Operation between float and float is float
Precedence rule:
Operator precedence determines the order in which operators are evaluated.
Operators with higher precedence are evaluated first.
Associativity Rule
Associativity: In programming languages, the associativity (or fixity) of an
operator is a property that determines how operators of the same precedence
are grouped in the absence of parentheses.
bracket () Highest
Unary minus -
Multiplicative *, / , % Left to Right
Additive +- Left to Right
Equal = Right to Left Lowest
Problem Solving

printf("%d",x);
return 0 ;
}
The value of x is ___
(A) 6 (b) 7 (c) 8 (d) 9

Scoping Rule:
The scope of a variable in C is the block or the region in the program where a variable is
declared, defined, and used. Outside this region, we cannot access the variable and it is
treated as an undeclared identifier.
Example 1
#include<stdio.h>
int main {
{
int a =10 ;
printf(“%d”; a); // will print the 10
}
}
Output : it will print 10
Example 2
#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
{
int a =10 ;
}
printf("%d", a); // will not print 10
return 0 ;
}
Output: It will not print 10, variable is not defined
Lexical Scope Rule:
If variable is not defined within the block then definition of the variable is searched in
next upper block. This process is repeated until the definition is found.
#include<stdio.h>
int x = 40;
int main() {
int x = 30;
{
int x = 20;
{
int x = 10;
printf("%d", x);
}
}
return 0 ;
}
Relational Operator
The relational operators are
> < <= >= == !=
Less than Greater than Greater than Less than equal Exactly equal Not equal to
equal to to
Output of the relational operator is 0 or 1
(a) 30 > 40
(b) 30 >= 40
(c) 30 == 40
(d) 40!=30
(e) 40==40
(f) 40!=40
(g) 50 <50
#include<stdio.h>
int x = 40;
int main() {
printf("%d\n", 30>40);
printf("%d\n", 30>=40);
printf("%d\n", 30==40);
printf("%d\n", 30!=40);
printf("%d\n", 40!=30);
printf("%d\n", 40==40);
printf("%d\n", 50>50);
printf("%d\n", 50<=50);
return 0 ;
}
Precedence of relational Operator
Logical Operator:
1. Logical AND (&&)
2. Logical OR (||)
3. Logical NOT (!)
Logical AND (&&)
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int a = 20;
int b = 30;
printf("%d", a > 10 && b > 10);
}
// output
// Both numbers are greater than 10
Logical OR (||)
Example
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int a = 20;
int b = 5;
printf("%d", a > 10 || b > 10);
}
Logical NOT (!)
#include <stdio.h>
int main( ) {
int a = 20;
int b = 5;
printf("%d", !(a > 10 ));
}

Short Circuit Code:
int a;
a = 0&& ;
if the first operand is zero then second operand is not evaluated.
int a;
a = 12&& ;
if the first operand is one then second operand is evaluated.
int a;
a = 1|| ;
if the first operand is one then second operand is not evaluated.
int a;
a = 0|| ;
if the first operand is zero then second operand is evaluated.
